Ingredients
  

  • 32 Murray Sugar Free® shortbread cookies
  • 1 package Wilton® Dab-N-Hold™ edible adhesive
  • 6 ounces green candy coating
  • ¼ cup Green sprinkles
  • 16 green sugar decoration leaves
  • 8 flower-shaped candy lollipops

Equipment

  • Kitchen Knife
  • Cutting Board

Method
 

  1. 1. Start with one cookie. Apply dots of the edible adhesive to the top side of the cookie. Quickly, place another cookie on top, pressing gently to secure it. The aim is to create a sturdy base for your flowerpot.
  2. 2. Now, add more cookies. Place dots of edible adhesive on the top of the second cookie, and stack a third cookie on top. Repeat this process by applying more edible adhesive and adding a fourth cookie. This step builds the height of your flowerpot.
  3. 3. Repeat the stacking process with the remaining cookies, creating a total of eight flowerpots. Set them aside to dry for at least six hours, ensuring the adhesive has enough time to set.
  4. 4. Prepare the candy coating according to the package directions. This will be the filling of your flowerpot, giving it that authentic look.
  5. 5. Once prepared, place the cookie flowerpots onto a baking sheet lined with waxed or parchment paper. Using a small spoon, add a small amount of the candy coating into each flowerpot. This step is crucial as it creates the illusion of soil.
  6. 6. Sprinkle the green sprinkles over the candy coating in each cookie flowerpot, giving it a textured look that resembles grass.
  7. 7. Take your green sugar decoration leaves and apply a dab of candy coating on the back. Place two leaves on each flowerpot, positioning them to mimic flowers sprouting from the center.
  8. 8. Cut the stick on the flower-shaped candy lollipop to your desired size. Carefully insert the stick into the candy coating in the center of the flowerpot. Make sure it’s secure, and repeat this step with the remaining cookies.
  9. 9. Allow the cookie flowerpots to dry for at least two hours. Be gentle and avoid moving them until they are completely dry to ensure proper assembly.

Notes

Keep your cookies in an airtight container to maintain freshness. They can last up to a week at room temperature!
