TIPS:To decorate, you will need disposable piping bags, decorating tip couplers, small round decorating tip

(such as Wilton #2 or #3), and decorating squeeze bottle. I When reconstituted with water, dried egg whitepowder becomes egg whites; because its pasteurized, it can be safely used without being cooked. Note: It is

not the same as meringue powder.

Hello Kitty Sugar Cookies

with Royal Icing

Rich, buttery, and decorated with a thin layer of sweet royal icing,these

classic sugar cookies are great for birthdays, holidays, or anytime snacks. Just be sure

to give yourself plenty of time to make themits best to let the icing dry overnight.

Cookies

1 cup sugar

14 tbsp (134sticks) unsalted butter

1 egg, room temperature

1 tsp vanilla extract

3 cups all-purpose flour

Pinch salt

Icing and Decorating

1 tbsp dried egg white powder1

3cup water4 cups (1 pound) confectioners

sugar

1 tbsp freshly squeezed lemon juice,strained

Gel-based food coloring(black, yellow, and your choicefor the bow)

To make cookies:Combine sugar and

butter in the bowl of a stand mixer. Using the paddle

attachment, beat until smooth and creamy. Add egg and

vanilla, mixing at medium speed until combined. Sift in

flour and salt, then mix until flour is incorporated and

dough starts to come together in a large mass. Turn out

the dough onto a floured surface and press with your

hands to flatten it into a disk. Wrap in plastic wrap and

chill in the refrigerator for at least 20 minutes.

Preheat oven to 350F; line a baking sheet withparchment paper. Place dough onto a floured surface

and use a rolling pin to roll it out to a 18-inch thickness.

Use cookie cutters to cut out shapes, then use a

spatula to transfer them to the baking sheet. ( Tip: If

the dough gets warm and too soft to work with, chill for

30 minutes.) Bake for 10 to 12 minutes, or until golden

brown. Let cool.

To make royal icing:In a small

bowl, dissolve dried egg white powder in water.

Sift confectioners sugar into the bowl of a

stand mixer. Pour the dissolved egg whites

and lemon juice through a strainer and into

the confectioners sugar. Mix with paddle

attachment on high speed for about 5 minutes,or until becomes light and fluffy. Store icing in

an airtight container at room temperature until

ready to use.

To assemble:First, tint the icing

different colors. In one bowl, place 13cup of

the icing and stir in a few drops of yellow. In a

second bowl, place 34cup of the icing and tint

it black. Place 1 12cups of the icing in another

bowl and tint it the color of your choice for the

bow. Leave the rest of the icing white, for Hello

Kittys face. Next, make thinner icings to fill inthe areas piped with thicker icing. To half of the

white icing, add water a teaspoon at a time until

thinned. Repeat for half of the bow icing. Fit

piping bags with couplers and fill with one color

of stiff icing. Fill each decorating squeeze bottle

with the thinned icing.

Use the stiff bow icing to pipe the bow outline

either freehand or using a paper template

and edible food marker. Fill the bow shape by

squeezing the thinned bow icing within the

outline. Pipe stiff white icing around the cookie

edge to outline Hello Kitty s face. Fill in face and

ears with thinned white icing. (Use a toothpick

to spread icing to edges of borders defined by

the stiff icing.) Let dry overnight, uncovered, in

a cool dry area. Leftover icing can be stored at

room temperature in an airtight container; stirbefore using.

Once cookies are completely dry, use stiff black

icing to pipe eyes and whiskers. Outline bow

with either stiff bow-colored icing or stiff black

icing. Use the yellow icing to pipe on the nose.

Let dry.

Maks about 2 dozen cookis.
