You will have to let the frosting reset but it was no problem.

I have the recipe printed since you posted it and I am thinking it will make a nice treat for the kids in my son school for next week "letter D" theme.<BR/>But before I make I would like to ask you a question, do you think I could make and freeze them (before icing), and then defrost a day ahead and do the decorations?! I havent frozen cookies before, so I am a little lost on this idea... but it would make my life a lot easier if I could do that.<BR/>Thanks!<BR/>AnaAnahttps://www.blogger.com/profile/02059525939843970727noreply@blogger.com
