I am not a cookie decorator. And I won’t pretend to be. I have admitted to you many times that I don’t do well with royal icing – I am a buttercream girl all the way and when I do decorate cookies its super basic…. like more often than not, I will just take a knife and slather some icing on there to get the job done…
My friend Jodi from @farmersdaughterskitchen on the other hand… now she is the cookie decorating queen!


Her cookie designs absolutely blow my mind.
I am always getting questions from you guys on how to decorate cookies with royal icing, and I thought the only way to do it would be to bring in an expert – aka, Jodi.
So this past weekend she came over to film a tutorial on how to make a perfect batch of royal icing to use to decorate the cutest (and sassiest) Valentine’s Day Cookie I ever did see!

I mean honestly… would you just look at these cookies… They are next level.



Jodi is just so talented, and creative and not to mention hilarious and fun and wonderful. I wanted you all to get to know her and see what she can do. So here is a little glimpse at the cookies she created.






These were the cookies that I ended up decorating…

Definitely not Jodi level – but a vastly huge improvement from anything I have ever attempted on my own (HA!) Couldn’t have done it without her.
