Cooking with Jonny69: Cookies a 5 year old could do better!

[Jonny69]

Well folks, it's the end of the Christmas break. I've been off work for far too long and the boredom is well entrenched. So much so that I've resorted to baking lame cookies. So lame, a 5 year old child could do a better job

Recipe.

For the cookies: see online for a Delia Smith recipe, but do your teeth a favour and cut down the sugar a bit!

For the icing: icing sugar in diabetes-inducing quantities, splash of water to make a paste, coloured food dyes (something hideous looking with a warning on the bottle is best).

Roll out and cut out with some random unmatched cookie cutters. Bake for 15 minutes on greaseproof paper at 180. Cool on a rack not designed for cooling cookies on. Ice them badly with small paintbrushes:

Came out pretty badly huh?

See if you can guess which ones I made and which ones the missus made:

My friend made xmas cacti too. She decorated them with halloween ghosts.

Should've added chocolate chips. They would have made up for everything.

I was expecting some mechanical flavour to the cookies and you're right, a five year old could have done better.
