These high altitude tested, perfect chocolate cutout cookies have the most delicious flavors of rich dark chocolate, butter and vanilla. They’re soft, not too sweet, and hold their shape beautifully when they bake. Since they’re not very sweet on their own, they’re perfect for decorating with royal icing or buttercream frosting for any holiday or special occasion.
This is an easy recipe for basic royal icing, with a simple technique for dipping sugar cookies and cutout cookies, instead of using piping bags. The icing dries firm on top with a beautiful sheen, staying a little soft underneath.
