How do you make cookies on a stick?

Question

I have never done it, but would like to try. Cookie bouquets are so expensive and I wanted to make some for Halloween. So does anyone have a good recipe to use? What do I need to buy? Any special way of baking them? Do I have to make any special preparations?

Thanks in advance!

Michelle Bommarito’s Sugar Cookies For Sticks

3 c. all-purpose flour

1 teaspoon baking powder

2 sticks butter, unsalted, softened

1 cup granulated sugar

1 large egg 1/2 t. kosher salt

1 teaspoon vanilla extract

dash of almond extract

Sift together the flour and baking powder. In a mixing bowl, beat the butter and sugar until light and fluffy. Stir in the egg, salt and both extracts.

Slowly add flour mixture (1 cup at a time) and stir until incorporated

Form the dough into a disc and wrap in plastic wrap. Refrigerate for at least 1 hour.

Preheat oven to 375 degrees F. Roll the dough onto a lightly floured surface to approximately 5/8″ thick. Cut the cookies into shapes and place the cut cookie shape on a parchment lined cookie; Poke a stick into cookies.

Bake the cookies for approximately 8-10 minutes or until the edges begin to turn golden brown in color. Remove cookies from the oven and allow tocool on a wire rack for 5 minutes.

Royal Icing

1 pound confectioner’s sugar

5 T meringue powder or 1/4 cup pasteurized egg whites

Ice cold water according to desired consistency and 1 teaspoon vanilla

Stir together, using as much water as needed for desired consistency

On the recipe  above I think you could use any icing you want even the cake canned kind using food color to make different colors.

Answer 2

Use a recipe for roll-out cookies.  Here's one: http://www.wilton.com/recipe/Roll-Out-Co...

Roll the dough thicker than you would usually, maybe 1/4 inch or even a little thicker.  Cut your shapes and put them on the baking sheet, then put your hand (flour it lightly first) on the cookie and press the stick into the bottom of it.  Bake according to the recipe directions.

You can use royal icing to decorate cookies.  I prefer to use rolled fondant.  I roll it out while the cookies are baking, and cut shapes with the same cookie cutter I used for the cookie itself.  When the cookies are done, I put them on a cooling rack and put the fondant cutout on top.  The heat of the cookie will melt the fondant just enough to adhere to the cookie.

You can buy clear treat bags at Hobby Lobby...they're $2 for 48 bags, which is cheaper than the Wilton ones.  They don't come with ties, but I always use curling ribbon that coordinates with the colors of the cookies.
