Baby Groot Cookies! "Guardians of the Galaxy"

CUTE  Baby Groot Gingerbread men

After seeing the movie "Guardians of the Galaxy" I needed to have more of Baby Groot in my life.
A friend showed me this link 'How to make Baby Groot cupcakes'
In love with this idea, I immediately had to make some of my own.

I used black gel icing for the eyes to make them more shiny.
Instead of frosting the roots on the body I drew root designs using a spoon.

TIP: be sure to make your cookies thicker rather than thinner. 
That way they will hold up in the cupcake better without breaking.

TIP: Roll out your dough onto parchment paper and cut out your cookies arranged how you would bake them. Remove the dough around the cut cookies. Slide the paper and your cut cookie shapes onto a backing sheet.


TIP: Use gel food dye. Dip the tip of the toothpick in dye and drag it on the wet royal icing or use a drop of gel on the royal iced cookie and drag through the colored gel drops to make cool swirls.
