Ingredients:
- 2 cups all-purpose flour
- 1/2 teaspoon baking powder
- 1/4 teaspoon salt
- 1/2 cup unsalted butter, softened
- 3/4 cup granulated sugar
- 1 large egg
- 1 teaspoon vanilla extract
- Yellow food coloring
- Red food coloring
- Black food coloring
- White royal icing
- Assorted colored royal icing for decorations
Instructions:
In a bowl, whisk together flour, baking powder, and salt
In another bowl, cream together butter and sugar until light and fluffy
Beat in the egg and vanilla extract until well combined
Gradually add dry ingredients to the wet ingredients and mix until a dough forms
Divide the dough into three portions
Color one portion with yellow food coloring, another with red, and the last one with black
Wrap each colored dough in plastic wrap and refrigerate for at least 1 hour
Preheat the oven to 350F 175C and line a baking sheet with parchment paper
Take a small amount of each colored dough and roll them into thin ropes
Arrange the ropes side by side, pressing lightly to stick them together
Use a knife to cut out Spongebob-shaped cookies from the dough, using a template if needed
Place the cookies on the prepared baking sheet and bake for 10-12 minutes, or until the edges are lightly golden
Allow the cookies to cool completely on a wire rack
Once the cookies are cool, use white royal icing to pipe the eyes and teeth
Use colored royal icing to add details like Spongebobs tie, pants, and facial features
Let the icing set before serving or storing the cookies
