Rainbow Shamrock Cookies

 This post first appeared on my other blog in 2016, but since I no longer maintain that one, I'm reposting some of my favorites here!


Today I’m sharing some easy peasy St. Patrick’s Day Cookies!

My boys took these to school to share with their classmates and they helped make them!

To make these, add green gel food coloring to your favorite sugar cookie recipe .  Roll, cut with a shamrock cutter, cook according to recipe instructions & cool.


Then, pipe a thick arch of stiff royal icing (or butter cream or any thick frosting) and add mini M&Ms or sprinkle to make a rainbows (that’s where the kids can help).  Lastly, add different sized sugar pearls for clouds on either end of the rainbow.

Let the icing dry before storing.
