Erin’s Easy Eats

Another TWD post!  This week’s recipe was selected by noskos at Living the Life.  Check out her blog for the recipe

I made these sugar cookies for a bake sale fundraiser that my school’s Relay for Life team was having.  Although I can’t say these are my favorite sugar cookies, they were very easy to make, and the texture was good.  I may have cut mine too thick (as I went the slice and bake route) so bear that in mind if you choose to make them.  I added orange zest to mine (and beat it with the sugar, as suggested, to let the orange flavor really permiate the cookies.)

And then I frosted with a simple mixture of confectioner’s sugar, orange juice, butter, and a few drops of food coloring.

Here they are, all wrapped up for the bake sale.  Cute!

My next TWD tackle will be Butterscotch Pudding.  Mmm…  I just made fudge today though, so that will have to wait until the fudge is gone.  For Christmas, a TWD Orange Chocolate Cheesecake!
