To make the Pokémon Cookies you first make cookies from the receipt of sugar cookies. You can make them in any shape or form you like and than decorate with Icing. I have here made Pokémon Pokeball Cookies.
Sugar Cookies
Ingredients
- 1 1/2 cup unsalted butter, softened
- 1 cup sugar
- 1 large egg
- 2 teaspoons vanilla extract
- 4 1/2 cups all-purpose flour
- 1/2 teaspoons salt
Directions
In a bowl, with mixer on medium, beat butter and sugar until fluffy; beat in egg and vanilla extract. On low, beat in flour and salt.
Divide dough in half; shape each half into a 1/2-inch-thick disk. Wrap in plastic wrap; chill until firm.
Heat oven to 175 degrees Celsius, ( 350 degrees F).
On floured surface, roll dough, 3 mm (1/8-inch) thick; cut into shapes. Transfer to ungreased baking sheet(s). Bake until lightly golden around the edges, 10 minutes. Let cool 5 minutes on sheets; transfer to racks to cool. Decorate as desired; store in an airtight container up to 2 weeks, or freeze, undecorated, up to 3 months.
Icing
3 cups sifted confectioner´s sugar, or more to thicken icingLittle juice of a lemonRed, and black food coloringWater or eggwhite for mixing into the confectioner´s sugar for icing to get wanted thickness
To make the icing, whisk the egg whites or water into the confectioner sugar, pass a little lemon juice through a fine sieve, to remove any pips or bits. Mix the icing sugar with the lemon juice, (if too thin add more confectioner´s sugar, if too thick add a little water till you have the consistency you want) Mix the ingredients and divide into different bowls and add the color you like to each bowl. If the color makes the icing thinner, add more confectioner´s sugar. Mix and pour the icing into bags for decorating your cakes.
You want to divide it into three bowls. One for black color, one for red color and one for white. Decorate the cakes with the icing and leave to dry and harden.
