Mardi Gras Cookies

Mardi Gras is by far my favorite holiday. Every year I force my husband and friends to go downtown with me and stand in the cold and rain (because it rains on us every time, without fail) for the parades. I just love it!

So with Mardi Gras less than a week away it was time for me to make some cookies! I found a Mardi Gras mask cutter recently and was so excited to use it. I used the same recipe I have been using with lemon extract instead of the almond and royal icing to decorate. Plus lots of Mardi Gras colored sprinkles that I bought for king cakes!

    Laissez les bons temps rouler ya’ll. I’ll be dreaming of Mardi Gras from Topeka, KS. Every year I order a king cake from NO and none of my office mates get it (as in understand it). They don’t understand the allure. I miss the city.

    GIRL!!!you are getting sooo good at decorating those cookies and aren’t those the most beautiful blue eyes you ever saw on an “almost” 3 year old little boy and those eye lashes, the picture isn’t really doing the lashes justice.

    These are beautiful! I would love someday to go to Mardi Gras.

    We will be in Louisiana in early July. Maybe I can celebrate than?
