That is what it was called when my friend gave it to me, but I think they are secretly just sugar cookies. But they were delicious! I didn't want to be stuck with all of the cookies, so we brought them around to our friends and neighbors to enjoy!

How To Make wedding cake cookies

  • Step 1
    COOKIES:
  • Step 2
    Preheat oven to 350 degrees.
  • Step 3
    Whisk together flour, salt, and baking powder in a medium bowl.
  • Step 4
    In a seperate, larger, bowl, combine butter and sugar with an electric mixer until fluffy, about 2 minutes.
  • Step 5
    Add eggs one at a time, mixing well in between.
  • Step 6
    Transfer half of dough onto a well-floured surface. Roll one half of dough untill about 1/4 inch thick (I don't expect you to break out the ruler, don't worry). Store other half in fridge.
  • Step 7
    Using cookie cutters, cut dough into shapes (or wedding cakes) and put on other cookie sheet. The recipe my friend gave me didn't say to grease the sheet, so I didn't, but some of the cookies stuck. I got them up easily ehough with a knife though, so it is up to you.
  • Step 8
    Repeat step 7 with other half of dough.
  • Step 9
    Bake 11-13 minutes. I baked them 9, and the ones on the dark pan were slightly burnt, but nothing to cry about. I suggest you put it on for short intervals, and check them in between.
  • Step 10
    ICING:
  • Step 11
    Put confectioners sugar and milk into a bowl, and mix. These instructions are very vague because amounts depend on how many cookies you make.
  • Step 12
    To make them more fun, put a little icing into small bowls and make funky colors. We (me and my decorating team, A.K.A the kids + friends) ended up with orange, purple, green, light/pinkish red, green, and a pretty blue/green color.
  • Step 13
    ENJOY YOUR DELICIOUS SUGAR COOKIES IN DISGUISE!!! (or are they?????)
