Hot Cocoa Mug Decorated Cookie (Tutorial)

Hot drinks in the cold winter months are my favorite way to warm up.
Hot cocoa and hot tea are my go-to drinks when I come in from a blustery frigid day.

Let's make a hot cocoa mug cookie!

Here's a new mug cutter from BobbisCookiesCutters.

For this tutorial, refer to both the video and the photos below.

It's beginning to look a lot like Christmas.
What a wonderful time of year.

here is the first of many Christmas cookies for this season.

May your Christmas season be filled with lots of
wonderful sights, smells, tastes, textures, and sounds!

Holiday Hot Chocolate Mug Decorated Cookies (Tutorial)

I'm a huge fan of hot chocolate.

And I'm also a huge fan of this adorable mug cookie cutter from That's A Nice Cookie Cutter.

 

Because I'm CRAZIE about adding a 3D effect to most cookies, I added an extra thin layer of cookie dough to the marshmallow spots on these cookies.
Notice in the photo below that I used the top of the cutter to help make the marshmallow additions just the right size.

Outline and flood the mug portion of the cookie.
Add white glaze to form the marshmallows.

After some dry time, add the mug handles.
Outline the marshmallows to help them stand out even more.

Once the mug has dried for about 2 hours,
use an appropriate-sized cutter to imprint on the front of the mug.
Any Christmas-y shape will work well.

If desired, you can pipe detail elements around the impression to make it "pop".

 

Hot Cocoa - Cup of Love Cookie Collection





Hot cocoa is such a perfect drink.......
It's filled with chocolate-y goodness and warms you straight to the soul. :)

I remember vividly making hot cocoa for the kids as they were growing up......
when they came in from their play time in the snow......
all red-cheeked and cold.....but so happy.....especially when they saw the hot cocoa.

SO I would definitely call it a cup of love, because I poured lots of love in those mugs.

And with hot cocoa comes lots of yummy cookies too, right?!

Personal Side

It's been a great week. 
LOVE those kind.

I did a whole bunch of Valentines cookies......
finished by Tuesday.
That means I photo-ed them on Wed and was able to start editing on Thursday.
It made for a fantastic week in the cookie realm.

Starting to make plans for our Ukraine trip in August......
and possibly a side trip elsewhere in Europe.
Oh my......I'm so excited!

2014......you are already such a blessing.



Instagram photos for this week:


One of my favorite things about cold weather.....hot drinks!


A new toy I got for my birthday is working well......oh the possibilities!
It's a letter press set you can get from Amazon. 


 Texture.....love it!
And a winter theme has tons of it. :)
Happy Monday! 


What is it about simple heart cookies that make them so pretty?
I ♥ Valentines Day cookies for that very reason!


Cookies Rock.....yes, they do! 💜

These winter cookies surpassed my expectations.
I'll be doing more silhouettes in the future.
They are relatively easy and give great results. :)
Happy Wednesday!


We put lots of love in our little works of art, don't we? :)


Need a snack? Haha
