Lego Cookies

Make colorful Lego-inspired cookies that are ideal for childrens parties or any Lego fan. These cookies are not only delicious, but they also provide an excellent opportunity for creative expression.

Ingredients:

• 2 1/4 cups all-purpose flour
• 1/2 teaspoon baking powder
• 1/2 teaspoon salt
• 1 cup unsalted butter, softened
• 3/4 cup granulated sugar
• 1/2 cup packed brown sugar
• 1 teaspoon vanilla extract
• 2 large eggs
• Assorted food coloring gels
• Royal icing for decorating

Instructions:

Mix the flour, baking powder, and salt together in a bowl with a whisk

Mix the butter, brown sugar, granulated sugar, and vanilla extract in a different large bowl until the mixture is light and fluffy

One egg at a time, beat in until everything is well mixed

Slowly add the dry ingredients to the wet ones and mix them together until they are just combined

Cut the dough into smaller pieces and use the food coloring gels to give each piece a different color

Put each color of dough in a plastic bag and put it in the fridge for at least an hour

Warm the oven up to 350F 175C and put parchment paper on a baking sheet

Shape small amounts of each color of dough into the shape of a Lego brick

Leave some space between each cookie when you put the Lego shapes on the baking sheet that has been prepared

After the oven is hot, bake for 10 to 12 minutes, or until the edges are just beginning to turn golden

After taking the cookies out of the oven, let them cool for a few minutes on the baking sheet

Then, move them to a wire rack to cool all the way down

Once the cookies are completely cool, use royal icing to make patterns and designs on them that look like Lego blocks

Before you serve or store the cookies, let the frosting set
