Mickey Mummy Recipe and How to
It is quite easy to make them, and yes, I have a short cut or two for you.
Ingredients:
- 1 egg
- Cookie Cutter: mickey mouse head
- 1 cup of butter
- 1.5 cups of powder sugar
- 1 tsp vanilla
- 3 cups of flour
- 1 tsp baking soda
- 1 tsp cream of tartar
Cool mom tip: you can already make the cookie dough black instead of working with icing. To do that, add black gel coloring to the mix.
Directions
- Preheat oven to 350 degrees and cover a cookie sheet with parchment paper and set aside.
- Mix the butter, powder sugar, vanilla, and egg together until combined and creamy.
- Gradually add in the dry ingredients plus cream of tartar.
- Lightly flour a cutting board and roll out the dough to about 1/2 inch thick
- Cut out a few mickey heads and place onto the cookie sheet
- Bake for 8 minutes or until lightly golden brown
- Let cookies cool completely before decorating.
- If you are working with black cookie dough, please jump to #10 on the icing instructions.
Icing ingredients
- 4 egg whites

- 0.5 cups of vanilla
- 4.5 cups of powder sugar

Icing Directions :
