Pearl and Shell Clam Shaped Cookies

What You Need

What You Do

  1. Make or buy your sugar cookies. If you are making them, use a scalloped cookie cutter for the shape.
  2. Combine your icing with a couple drops of food coloring (here is where you can really match your goodies to your party color palette) and mix well. 
  3. Ice the 'bottoms' of your shell cookies. Carefully place the 'top' of your shell, with one side sticking up a little more than the other, to give the appearance of an open shell. 
  4. Finally, place your pearl by pushing the chocolate piece into the icing between the cookies. 
  5. Add to your table, and enjoy the party with all of your pretty mermaid details!
