Cookie Raffle! Yes actual cookies! - Apple Cider Cookies!
10 years ago
I want more cookie decorating practice, because my family doesn't want more cookies right now XD they still have halloween ones leftover :P
SO, I'm gonna be setting up a cookie package raffle (in the USA only for now unless you'd like to pay for international shipping yourself)! Simply commenting on this journal WITH YOUR THEME will give you an entry, but only one entry per person! I'm not sure when I'm going to be picking winners for this one, but know I'm gonna be trying to do these every two to three weeks when I can.
There'll be 3 winners, one main winner and two mini winners!
These cookies will be a new recipe or me, and will definitely have apple cider. I don't know how well they will work as rolled cookies and may not hold shape as well as gingerbread or sugar cookies do. If that is the case I'm just going to ice these with a simple drizzle and make a second batch of either gingerbread or sugar cookies for actual decorating, but there may be bonus cookies in this batch.
*The main winner will get a dozen (12) cookies! 2 can be custom cut shapes and the others will be more generic-y shapes. Basically anything I have cookie cutters for, so simple shapes or holiday stuff right now. I'm working on getting more cutters though
*Mini Winners will get a half dozen(6) cookies! 1 of the six can be a custom cut shape and the others will be simpler :3
*Most of the cookies will be between 2 and 4 inches, though I have some smaller cutters and larger cutters, so it's sort of a mystery!
*Winners will also be able to give me a simple theme to work with! So something like a holiday, flowers, cookies based of a certain character or stuffed animal, etc.
The point of these cookie sets is to give me more practice in decorating and using different techniques and getting better at things I'm NOT very good with yet, OR just practicing basic techniques. Sometimes I will have a pre-set-up style theme I'm wanting to work with, like a more folk-art style, or wanting to use a limited pallet of 2 or 3 colors. Sometimes I will already have a side theme set up as well, like christmas cookies but with a personalized twist like above!
AS A BIG NOTE, ANYONE WITH MAJOR FOOD ALLERGIES SHOULD BE VERY CAREFUL IF EATING THESE COOKIES! I work in a kitchen that has nuts and tree nuts and other major food allergens in it constantly, and while I do try to keep my work area clean at all times, there is a small chance that cross contamination CAN HAPPEN! I do a LOT of cooking and baking and when I go on a baking spree things can get mixed accidentally, so PLEASE LET ME KNOW IF YOU HAVE ANY ALLERGIES BEFORE HAND AND I WILL TRY TO KEEP YOUR COOKIES AS SEPARATE AS I CAN!
