Graduation Cookies

My friend's daughter (my kittysitter) is graduating high school this week!

They had a graduation open house for her

and I volunteered to make her some graduation cookies.

Her school colors are green and silver.

I purchased green & silver sprinkles

and used my graduation cap, 1 and 2 cookie cutters.

Since it is 2012, I thought it would be cute to do '12 cookies

along with graduation caps.

I'd never overlapped cookies before so I was a little nervous.

I placed the ones first and then added the twos.

I baked them slightly longer to ensure they were done.

 Fresh out of the oven - cute!

They turned out just like I'd hoped.

 The tassel on the graduation cap was f.r.a.g.i.l.e.

 I iced and sprinkled them

giving them 8 hours to dry out on my counter.

 They were ready to be plated.

I think any graduate would love these cookies!!
