Doctor Who?

This weekend, we hosted my friend Rachel's hen party. We made it a Doctor Who themed party, so I baked some themed cookies.

I found a bow tie cookie cutter in Hobbycraft which was perfect. I decided to make sugar cookies - first time for everything! - and top with blue icing. The sugar cookies were easy enough to make, but they lost their shape in the oven so it was all down to the icing to bring out the shape. I had some practice on some of the cookies and it seemed like I used half a box of icing sugar to create the right consistency, but I'm pleased with the result! There aren't many left in the tin so I'm guessing our guests enjoyed them!

Ok, so they're hardly a professional job, but they tasted good and I can always practice my icing skills!
