If you have a Kopykake or Pico projector, just print it out (or pull it up on your mobile device) and you are good to go. For those without a projector, follow the suggested steps below by tracing the design onto the cookie with an edible food marker.

The Cookie Decorating Process

For the colors used for these oven mitt cookies, you will need the following suggested colors:

• Light Blue royal icing (I mixed Americolor Sky Blue with Turquoise.)
• Green icing (I mixed Americolor Egg Yellow with Mint Green.)
• Tan icing (I mixed Americolor Orange, Americolor Electric Green, with a touch of Americolor Chocolate Brown.)
• White icing (I used Americolor Bright White.)
• Gray icing (I used Americolor Ash.)
• Dark Brown icing (I used Americolor Chocolate Brown.)
• Turquoise Amerimist Airbrush color

Step 1

Starting with the top cookie, begin by filling in the rolling pin section with tan icing and the whisk section with white icing, as shown. Let that icing set.

Once it had time to crust over, fill in the middle spatula section with green icing.

Step 2

Once the base layer of icing had time to dry, add the rolling pin handle, the brown spatula handle, and the wires of the whisk.

Finish this cookie by added the middle detail of the spatula and the outlines for the rolling pin and spatula.

Step 3

For the oven mitt cookie, flood the entire cookie with light blue icing and let it dry completely.

Next, using the tufted pattern cookie stencil, I airbrushed onto the cookie with Turquoise airbrush color. Let this color dry.

Step 4

After the airbrushed pattern dried, I applied the message onto this cookie with this Happy Mother's Day Cookie Stencil. I used very stiff white royal icing and swiped it across the stencil onto the cookie.

Step 5

To complete the oven mitt cookie, I added a cuff detail and outlined the mitt for dimension.
