I’ve been holding out on you guys!

I found a cookie baking blog that is to DIE for!

not only decorates the most awesome cookies, but she also shares some wonderful tips, how to’s and takes incredible pictures!!

Her recent post on Easter “egg” cut out cookies inspired me to give the Royal Icing a try

First I shopped for a few supplies.

I followed all of Bridget’s “basics” tips on her blog .
