Directions for the Blackboard Cookies Recipe
Got all your ingredients ready? Now’s the time to get started with whipping up these super delicious cookies that look absolutely fab and Instagram-worthy!
Step 1
Line a baking sheet with parchment paper and set aside. Preheat oven according to sugar cookie recipe’s directions. Prepare sugar cookies according to recipe and use a 3-inch circular cookie cutter to cut out one dozen circles.
Step 2
Place each cookie on lined baking sheet and bake according to recipe’s directions. Allow for the cookies to cool completely before decorating. Roll out black fondant until it’s about ¼ of an inch thick. Using the same circular cookie cutter, cut out one dozen fondant circles
Step 3
Press one on each cookie.
Step 4
Divide white fondant into 12 spheres, about 1/3 of an inch in size. Roll out the white fondant spheres into cylinders, about one inch long. Set aside.
Step 5
In a large bowl, mix together butter, icing sugar and milk with an electric mixer. Start on slow speed and increase to high. Once ingredients are well-combined, scoop buttercream into a piping bag with a round icing tip.
Step 6
Add some frosting on each white cylinder and place one on every cookie – these will act as the “chalk.” On each cookie, frost the letters “a b c.” That’s it, your blackboard cookies recipe is all done! Serve and enjoy!
