‘SMARTIE’ Cookies….Having fun with colours!!
The kids love having these as part of their snack boxes or birthday parties. I call ’em ‘Smartie Cookies’. They are sugar cookies, spruced up with either ‘Smarties‘ or ‘M n M’s’, silver dragees and sprinkles. Sometimes, I use a colour theme and dress them up in Halloween or Christmas colours. Crisp, buttery and delicious, they usually disappear in seconds!! Posted by Deeba @ PAB

Always a big hit at birthday parties, and on Diwali and Christmas I customise them. On Diwali I do diyas (oil lamps) and candles with silver dragees on cookies. When Christmas comes, its bells, stars, xmas trees, wreaths, gingerbreadmen,candy canes, snowflakes etc and etc. I even do hanging ones for the tree on Christmas. We put ribbon through holes on top to hang them…and its really worth the hard work and…

Almond Butter Cookies
These are some almond butter cookies I made as tasters at a fund-raiser where I put up a stall. They made great samplers, and quite a few enquiries came my way asking if I could do these for finger foods! The silver dragees made them look pretty, and I found the many shades of golden brown interesting. Posted by Deeba @ PAB
