Had a lot of fun with these -- the cookie was delicious & the kids loved to help make and eat a variety of their own designs!
I loved how the cookie dough didn't need to be refridgerated before being rolled (multiple times!).
When you make the color flow full strength -- make sure it is not too thick! I had to thin it down a bit -- it was too hard to use in a piping bag. Once I thinned it, it was great!
