I love to cook. I don't bake. The little difficult child granddaughter and I "bake cookies" each Christmas. I use slice and bake rolled out so she can use cookie cutters for trees, stars, etc. She thinks it is terrific. Thank heavens.
Now, two simple questions:
When adding sprinkles should you eggwhite wash the cookies for the granulated sugar to adhere? Sometimes the granulated colored sugar falls off even when baked into the cookie dough.
Secondly are you suppose to frost before or after baking. Yes, lol, I use canned icing and not homemade. I'd like the frosting to adhere better and be hard enough so when we make layers in the cookie tins that she takes home for friends etc. the icing doesn't stick to the waxed paper.
Yes, I've been doing this since easy child was a toddler (almost 50 years ago) but since I
don't like it I forget year to year what works and what doesn't. Sad, huh? DDD
