Watch the video to see how I created these keyboard and mouse cookies!

Supplies:

  • Roll out cookie recipe (use your favorite or get mine in the tutorial shop)

  • 12” decorating bags

  • Tipless decorating bag

  • Concentrated food coloring

  • Silver pearl dust

  • White matte dust

  • Round brush and fine tip brush

  • Paint palette or small dish

  • Alcohol or flavored extract for painting with food coloring (Alcohol or flavored extracts are used for painting on royal icing because they evaporate very quickly, which means that the liquid won’t dissolve the icing as you are applying the paint. The stronger the alcohol, the better!)
