Eleven years ago today, I made these nephew-in-his-snowsuit sugar cookies for my family. Little Dylan was then the bundled-up dumpling below, so you can see why I just had to. ♥
At that time, I was in my last push toward finishing graduate school and the baking and cake/cookie-decorating were huge parts of my stress-relief that winter, as gardening was in the warmer months. My family and I ate more than our fair share of buttercream back in those days, let's just say.
And now this pudgy baby who inspired his own sugar cookie is heading to middle school next year. But still: So sweet. ♥

Did someone mention buttercream? Oooh, how I remember getting the baking bowl to clean out when my mum did the baking.
Adorable Cookies, adorable nephew. I get the buttercream thing! I used to love licking out the bowls and beaters as a child. I wouldn't dare do that now! xo
When you decide to make something, whether it's a stuffed animal or a cookie, the complexity of it certainly doesn't turn you off, does it? Those are cute!
Both cookies and nephew are cute as can be!
Thank you all. I remember these being fun to make. Buttercream: YES! With chocolate cake or carrot cake for me. Ah! So good!
