Ingredients
Ingredients For The Sugar Cookies:
- 1 cup unsalted real butter, cubed (not margarine)
- 1 cup cane sugar
- 2 eggs
- 4 cups flour
- ¾ cup cornstarch
- ¾ teaspoon kosher salt
- 1 teaspoon vanilla bean paste
- 1 teaspoon flavored extract of your choice
Ingredients To Decorate Two Dozen Moana Heart Of Te Fiti Sugar Cookies:
- 1 stick butter, softened
- 2 cups powdered sugar
- 4 to 6 Tablespoons milk
- Green gel food coloring
- 8 ounces green fondant
Instructions
- Cream the butter and sugar until just combined. Do not over mix the butter and sugar.
- Add the eggs and mix again.
- Add the flour, cornstarch and salt to the butter mixture and turn the mixer on low to combine the ingredients.
- Mix just long enough for the mixture to form into a ball.
- Stir in the vanilla bean paste and the flavored extract of choice.
- Roll the dough into a log shape, then wrap the dough in Saran Wrap and refrigerate for one hour.
- When the hour is up, remove the chilled dough from the refrigerator and roll it out to ¼ inch thickness.
- Cut out the cookie dough shapes, lay them out on parchment paper lined cookie sheets and put them back in the refrigerator for an hour.
- Preheat the oven to 375 degrees.
- Place the cookies into the oven on the parchment lined cookie sheets and bake for 9 to 12 minutes.
- Cool completely on a wire rack.
- Once the cookies are completely cool, use an electric mixer to beat the butter, sugar and 4 Tablespoons milk until it is smooth. If the icing is not smooth enough or easy to spread, add the additional milk, a Tablespoon at a time and mix it in until the icing is the desired consistency.
- Add two to four drops of green gel food coloring to the butter mixture and mix on low until the frosting is the shade of green you want it to be.
- Roll a piece of green fondant into a long strip, about 4 inches long.
- Use a spatula to spread the green frosting on each cookie, then set the cookie aside so you can move on to the next cookie.
- Place one strip of fondant onto each cookie in a circular motion starting in the center of the cookie. Press the fondant into the icing just enough to make it stick.
- Trim off any excess fondant when you get to the edge of the cookie.
- Continue this process until all the cookies are decorated. If the icing dries too fast, you can always add a little more to the top of the cookie before adding the fondant.
