Right-click on the template below to save it to your computer and print it out. This can be used to cut the cookie dough as well as to help with the placement of the face. After the base layer of icing is dry, trace the eyes, nose, and mouth using an edible ink marker.

Did you notice my floral and polka dot nails in the video? My sister-in-law gave me these gorgeous nail wraps for Christmas. She really knows my style! I thought they were prefect for this project. You can purchase them at Walmart.
