One Black Night



Yeah, as you can tell I have Halloween on the Brain! These cookies re more for those that want minimal icing on their cookie. So instead of giving the cookies a base of royal icing I just dyed the dough. It came out as a beautifully rich black that when paired with the white icing came out so much better than I thought it would. If you like these you can pick them up at my Etsy Store.

Here we go! 1 Cup Sugar 1/3 Cup Margarine 2 Eggs 2 Cup Mas...

Going with what others had done before and a few ideas of my own, a massive party invitation was put together.  The most impressive part was the Marauder's Map Invitation itself. I took a map I found online at another website and altered it a bit to include a middle fold out section. Link with to the original is here - Marauders Map  - Now, this is for a flat map with no folding insert in the center. If you would like to add that, just follow the pictures and add one yourself, it is rather simple to do....After you have followed the basic steps on the other website to construct your map, follow with these steps before folding anything.
