Wonder Woman Cookies / Heart Shape Made

A friend in my dance class asked me to make some super hero cookies. I showed you the Super Girl and the Super Hero Word Bubbles made. The last cookie made for the party was a Wonder Woman Cookie. I wanted to do some fun different and found an option of making it using a Heart! I know brilliant, I can't give credit to who created this because the link I found was just a photo uploaded to pinterest HERE. If this is yours please let me know so I can give credit.


I didn't want to buy a bubble cookie cutter, so I looked in my bin (ok 2 bins of cookie cutters). I had a sun I used last summer, I squished it down a bit and bam!

What you Need:
1 Heart Cookie Cutter
Royal Icing - Red, Blue and Gold (recipe below)
Pipping Bag


Since this required making the heart in two colors I had to pipe the whole cooking, instead of doing the dipping method like I used on the other cookies. The top half I piped on red and let it dry. I then took a pipping bag with blue and decorated the bottom half of the heart. I took a pipping bag with a star tip and made hearts on the blue AFTER it had dried. I took a pipping bag of gold to decorate the seam between the red and blue.

Cookies Packed up and ready for delivery!

Julie Usher, she has a GREAT YouTube video on how to make, color and make consistency adjustments

Royal Icing what you need:
2 lbs Powdered Sugar
1/2 tsp Cream of Tartar
5 Large Egg Whites (or equivalent) 
Flavor to Taste
Gel Icing Color

Mix powder sugar and cream of tartar in your mixer, just to make sure it is incorporated in. Slowly add egg whites, then whip start of slow then go to very high speed. She says around 2 minutes, my friend had an older mixer so it took almost 10 minutes. You want stiff peaks that hold on and won't fall off the spoon. Add in your flavor, I would suggest you use a clear flavoring.  This would be the glue texture great for ginger bread houses etc.

Take 1 cup of royal icing in a smaller bowl then add your coloring, lightly mix so you don't get air into the the icing. I'm like her and like the gel coloring. 

For Top Coating - Add 1 1/2 to 2 1/2 tsp Water (This is if you don't want to outline and flood)
For Outlining - Add 1/2 to 3/4 tsp Water
For Flooding  - Add 2 to 3 tsp Water

WATCH her video on How to Top-Coat, Outline, and Flood Cookies. YES it is around 7 minutes BUT if you have never done this technique it's a MUST she explains it perfectly.
