Stamped by Design Cookies
Simple & Delicious
“I was afraid if I frosted cookies to give for gifts at Christmastime, they would stick together when stacked in tins,“ relates Sherry Lee of Columbus, Ohio. “So I came up with this idea to use a foam stamp to create an indented design for the frosting. They’re so easy!”

METHOD: Baked
TIME: Prep: 25 min. Bake: 10 min./batch + cooling
Ingredients:
- 1 package (18-1/4 ounces) chocolate or white cake mix
- 2 eggs
- 1/4 cup vegetable oil
- Sugar
- ICING:
- 2 cups confectioners' sugar
- 2 to 3 tablespoons milk
- Assored food coloring, optional
Directions:
In a large mixing bowl, beat the cake mix, eggs and oil. Roll into 1-in. balls; place 2 in. apart on greased baking sheets. Flatten with a glass dipped in sugar.
Bake at 350° for 6-8 minutes or until tops are set. Lightly press a 1-1/2-in. cookie cutter onto cookies making a slight indentation. Remove to wire racks to cool completely.
In a small bowl, whisk the confectioners' sugar and enough milk to achieve a drizzling consistency. Tint with food coloring if desired. Place icing in a small heavy-duty resealable plastic bag; cut a small hole in a corner of bag. Carefully pipe icing into indentations. Yield: 6 dozen.
