Cookie and Truffles

Hey everyone,

Here is a picture of my favorite cookie I decorated yesterday and some truffles I made last week! The cookie is decorated with a Wilton 18 star tip.  It's definitely something that requires a lot of practice and patience to get the stars even.  As I was taught, the key is to hover a little over your cookie, squeeze the piping bag and then release before you lift the bag.  That will avoid bigger peaks.  I will be posting some more pictures of my progress soon since I am definitely baking something for Mother's Day this Sunday! 


 This is a home baked shortbread cookie with almond extract decorated with vanilla frosting.

These are semi sweet chocolate truffles.  The one at the top is dipped in white chocolate, below that the truffles are rolled in toasted coconut (left) and toasted almonds (right).

Have an awesome day!

xo,

Daniella :)
