For these cookies, you will need:

  • Cookies shaped like donuts, which I cut out using a large circle cutter and a small circle cutter.
  • Royal icing thinned to flood consistency in light brown, dark brown, pink, and white
  • Piping bags or zip-top bags
  • Sprinkles or jimmies
  • Toothpick or scribe tool

How to Make Them
