Additional Cookie Sets Spotlighted on Cookie Connection







Julia Usher's Cookie Connection is a site where over 1800 cookie bakers from all over the world come together in a spirit of community to share, learn and express their love for the art of baking cookies. There has been over 6,300 cookies published in all categories imaginable. Each week 10 cookies are selected and awarded a distinction. Yesterday was the 8th award I have received over the past months. 
All my cookies are made with either homemade marshmallow fondant or a butter cream fondant I also make myself. The cookie base is a sugar cookie recipe that I think is awesome , one I borrowed from Signature Sweet Shoppe. You can watch Jenny's video on the following link!

*My favorite  Marshmallow Fondant Recipe*





Making MMF is easy,delicious and cheaper then store bought fondant.

What you will need are the following ingredients:

*450 grams marshmallows
*900 grams of confectioners sugar
*1  1/2 tbsp. water
*1 tsp. of extract.
*high ratio shortening or Crisco or Trex



  1. Put the marshmallows and water  into a microwaveable bowl and heat on high for 30 seconds. Stir (with greased spoon) and continue to heat at 30 second intervals until the MM are melted.
  2. Slowly add the icing sugar in parts, stirring after each addition until combined.
  3. Grease hands and work surface. Knead until smooth and no longer sticky.
  4. Grease and wrap tightly in cling wrap and leave to firm- if you wish to add color and flavoring at this point it makes it much easier to work with since it is warm and pliable.

This MMF can be stored at room temperature in a plastic bag and then an air tight tupper for at least a month. 
This, of course, is not my personal recipe. I seen this recipe 100 times so wouldn't know who to credit with it's origins but I have made it many times and works well for me.

Enjoy it and begin to create beautiful and fun MMF cookies,cake coverings and cupcake decorations.  There is so much information available on the internet for teaching techniques. Take the time and learn-make a Sugar wish come true! T
