Yes!
Cookies shaped like mushrooms.
Would you expect anything less from me ...
the Mushroom Queen of the neighborhood.
The ones with the red caps are a sour cream sugar cookie with a semi-sweet chocolate connecting the stems to the caps ~ topped with a sweet royal icing glaze. They look like little Wine Caps.
The brown ones are a delectable ginger spice cookie with a chocolate dipping to hold them together.
Sam saw these cookies and went, "EWE MUSHROOMS! You ruined the cookies!" I tried to tell him they are just shaped like mushrooms... no mushrooms are in them.
I also had some comments about them not being a Christmas "shaped" cookie. Well...
apparently in Russia they are. Why? I don't know; but I like them.
Yum ...
So it begins ...
my crazy week of baking!
Until next time ...
So it goes in my neck of the woods.
