SweetAmbs Cookie and Royal Icing Recipe Downloadable PDF
This is my preferred roll out cookie recipe when decorating with royal icing. This orange vanilla cardamom cookie* is slightly chewy on the inside with crispy edges, keeps its shape while baking, and tastes great. It contains orange zest, vanilla bean and cardamom to give the cookies a unique flavor.
This recipe also calls for agave syrup, which helps to keep the cookies soft. Agave syrup browns more quickly than sugar, so keep that in mind when baking. You can omit the orange zest and cardamom from the recipe for a plain cookie, or try different flavors such as almond extract and lemon zest.
You will also receive my royal icing recipe with this purchase. Use this royal icing recipe to make perfectly smooth iced cookies and to make beautiful decorations such as brush embroidered flowers and bead borders.
This royal icing recipe is made with meringue powder rather than fresh egg white. You can read more about royal icing here: https://www.sweetambs.com/tutorial/royal-icing-consistencies/
DISCLAIMER: The outcome of the cookie recipe and royal icing recipe can be affected by many factors including but not limited to weather, altitude, variations in baking equipment and tools, as well as brand of ingredients used.
