New Year Frosted Cookies (2)

Overview

The previous article introduced homemade Happy New Year, making wishes come true frosted cookies and the meaning of frosted flower decorations. We also made a gift box using a milk carton. Today I continued to use the remaining dough and icing to make a New Year and Christmas series. Although Christmas is a Western holiday, New Year is a holiday for people all over the world. The frosted biscuits made today have the taste of Christmas, but also add Chinese elements, mainly reflected in the frosting pattern, which has the flavor of carving and hollowing. This article is just a reference, more beauty needs to be created by yourself.

Ingredients

Steps

1. 1 Cut butter into small pieces and soften at room temperature

   

2. 2 Add powdered sugar and stir evenly with a rubber spatula

   

3. 3 Use an electric mixer to beat until smooth

   

4. 4 Add the whole egg liquid in three batches and beat into a smooth and delicate butter paste. Each time, wait until the egg liquid and butter are completely mixed before adding the next egg liquid

   

5. 5 Sift in the flour

   

6. 6 Knead it into a ball with your hands, then wrap it in plastic wrap and refrigerate it in the refrigerator for at least 2 hours before using

   

7. 7 Roll out the refrigerated dough into a large piece about 0.4 cm thick

   

8. 8 Use your favorite mold to carve out the model and transfer it to the baking pan; you can also cut out the pattern you like with paper, then place it on the dough sheet and use a carving knife to carve out the pattern

   

9. 9 After the biscuits are ready, place them in a baking pan and put them into a preheated oven at 170 degrees, in the middle layer, with the heat up and down for about 15 minutes, until the edges of the biscuits are golden brown

   

10. 10 Take out of the oven, let cool on a rack and eat directly or make frosting decorations

    

11. 11 After the egg whites are beaten into large bubbles with an electric egg beater, add the powdered sugar. First, turn off the egg beater, use the egg beater to mix the powdered sugar and egg whites, then turn the egg beater back on, and beat until smooth and smooth

    

12. 12 Divide into different small portions, put them into different bowls, add appropriate amount of color paste to adjust to the desired color. Put it into a piping bag. The method of filling the icing is similar to the method of filling the whipped cream. Put the bag on a suitable cup or bottle and put the icing inside. It is clean and quick

    

13. 13 Adjust all the icing to the color you want, and use a transparent fat pig to stick it firmly on the bag. The unused original color icing can be wrapped in plastic wrap on the bowl and stored in the refrigerator. Do not expose it directly to the air, otherwise it will not be used again after it dries

    

14. 14 Get a snowman cookie base and make a pattern in your own likeness. The operation method is the same, first draw the outline

    

15. 15 Fill the outline with icing sugar.

    

16. 16 When filling a large area with frosting, you can use a clean toothpick to pop the big air bubbles inside and stir the frosting evenly

    

17. 17 If you want to paint another pattern on the icing filling, let it dry slightly before painting. But don't wait until it's completely dry before painting, otherwise the surface of the dry frosting will be too smooth and the wet frosting liquid won't easily stay on it.

    

18. 18 Here is another hollow style one, with only patterns and no coloring, it is also very beautiful
