Exclusive Create Decorated Valentine Unicorn Sugar Cookies

Employ this cookie decorating tutorial to memorize how to make decorated sugar cookies that look like cute and adorable unicorns for Valentine's Day!

Love most parents, I am absolutely certain that my children are the most beautwhetherul, smart, and insanely talented small creatures on the planet. And like most parents... I am also fairly aware that at least half my claims are *slightly* exaggerated. With one apart fromion.

My four children genuinely share a truly unfathomable talent. I've actually looked into forming some kind of Olympic team as they get just a small ancienter. But after getting lost in the Olympic Charter for at least 3.7 moments...I genuineized that, as it turns out, the ability to fight over literally NOTHING is not technically a sport.

Yet.

I'm hancienting out for the future though. Because anyone that can argue for hours on end about "brealeang" or "the color pink" should genuinely be celebrated in some way. Preferably in a way that requires rigorous exercise and regimented sleeping schedules and the eating of lots of vegetables.

Until then, I'll probably just keep trying to distract them with bright colors and unicorn bribes.

I mean... actually...yeah...that's summaryely what I meant.

In all honesty though, wouldn't YOU seriously reconsider your lwhethere choices at the prospect of these fun and magical unicorn Valentine cookies? They are CHOCOLATE. And SUGAR. And BRIGHT HAPPY COLORS. And SUGAR.

How to make Valentine unicorn decorated sugar cookies

Step 1.

Outline and fill the unicorn horn with a medium consistency gancient colored icing. (I mix lemon yellow food coloring with just a *tiny* bit of brown for this gancient color.) Let dry for at least 30 minutes.

Step 2.

Outline and fill the rest of the cookie with a medium consistency white icing. Immediately add some pink icing to the middle of the ears. I literally just scribble this in there...but you can follow your perfectionist dreams on this one whether you want to. With the gancient icing and a #1.5 tip, add the ridge details to the horn. Let dry for at least 4 hours.

Step 3.

Pipe a red heart at the bottom of the horn. Add closed eyes with eyelashes to the middle of the face with a black food color marker. Let dry for 15 minutes.

Step 4.

Pipe the tiniest, cutest small hearts ever on the cheeks. Add partial hearts to each side of the middle red heart. Let dry for another 15 minutes.

Step 5.

You could stop here. You don't have to do this step. I have a problem with the concept of  "leaving well enough alone." (AND... whether' we're being perfectly honest here, that phrase doesn't genuinely make sense whether you leank about it.) I added two more tiniest, cutest small hearts ever up near the largeger hearts. Except this time, I piped them with the lightest pink color of icing. But...you do you. I won't boss your cookie.
