Cinco De Mayo Sombrero Cookies
I made these cute sombrero sugar cookies a few years back for Lisa Rinna’s 50th birthday party. They are suuuuuper simple to make and perfect for Cinco De Mayo!
What you’ll need:
Round Sugar Cookies*
Rainbow Nonpareils Sprinkles
Disposable Pastry Bag
Gum drops
Buttercream Icing (see recipe below)
*I recommend using the sugar cookie recipe from my book Eat More Dessert
but any recipe will do!
Directions:
1. Fill disposable pastry bag with buttercream icing. Snip tip of bag and draw circle on outer edge of round cookie. Make dot of icing in center of cookie.
2. Turn cookie upside down into bowl or plate of rainbow nonpareil sprinkles. Turn right side up. Dot bottom of one gumdrop candy with icing. Place in center circle of cookie.
3. Say “ole!” and eat your adorable cookies.
