I have to brag about these cookies, because really how gorgeous do they look? Not only that but they were so easy that I think I may have a new addiction.They are so not my idea, I saw this in a little giveaway cookbook with last month's Notebook Magazine and the decoration is done by using stamps. How cool is that. I used the set I bought at Kyneton.
I made vanilla cookies - but you could use your favourite recipe. I cut the shape using a scone cutter and while they were cooking I rolled out white fondant icing. It worked better when it was quite thin. I cut this with the same cutter. 
Then I was ready to stamp. I had some black food colouring that I poured onto a moistened sponge and simply began to stamp - and low and behold it worked! The G was for Mr P's Miss G's birthday and was from an alphabet set from Kikki K. 
To put the biscuite and icing together I used a bit of jam, only because I didn't have any icing sugar. The only thing I would do differently is I think it would be easier to stamp the biscuit once the icing was connected to the biscuit. Now the floodgates are open and I am imagining the possibilities..... 
wow, they look great and so does your blog
