4th of July cookies

While I was visiting family in Illinois, my mom and I made these festive cookies! This frosting technique is one that my mom has been using for awhile. 

It's basically a simple cutout cookie, frosted with very thin powdered sugar frosting. Then we food color the frosting, and drizzle it over the already frosted (still wet) cookie.

We always end up with beautiful cookies, and they taste wonderful!
