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.

ReplyDeleteI think I would have a hard time with them, because my brain would be saying they should taste like mushrooms.
ReplyDeleteHow clever. They sound delicious.
ReplyDeleteI know it's mind over matter but I can definitely NOT see Sam eating these. You should shape all your cookies into mushrooms, maybe I will get to taste some then cause I know there will be left overs. Love and miss you!
ReplyDeleteYou are something else. Who else woulda thunk of it! BUT Sam ain't usually wrong. Good to see the post and a Merry Christmas to you guys in the North woods.
