Learn how to make perfect frosting roses to put on cookies, cupcakes and more. These President snow Hunger Games inspired cookies are so fun but you can use this rose frosting technique for so many creations!
Jump to RecipeDid you guys go see the movie?! What did you think? I am being a good sister and waiting until my sister can go so I have not seen it yet but I can’t wait. I’m still celebrating the Hunger Games movie release though so today I present to you President Snow’s Rose Cookies Recipe.
It’s so easy and of course you can do them in other colors for fun parties, how cute would they be for a spring luncheon or shower!
I thought about putting them on pops like my mermaid cookie pops and attaching a few leaves but I thought I’d keep it simple today and just do the basic cookies. They are really SO easy to do all you need is the right tip.
I’ve shared how to make rosettes with frosting before with my chocolate rose ganache cupcakes but since it’s been a while since I share those I thought I’d go over it again!
How to Make Frosting Roses
What You Need
- Basic Sugar Cookies (I love this recipe or just use refrigerator dough if you want)
- 2D Wilton Tip and Pastry bag
- Frosting (I just used the stuff in the tub)
What to Do
- Once your cookies are baked and cooled scoop about 1 C of frosting into your pastry bag with the tip attached.
- Hold the bag perpendicular to the cookie and starting in the middle squeeze and piped around in a circle. The key is to keep the bag always upright. You don’t want it tilted or to turn it at all. You hold the bag perpendicular the whole the the only movements is drawing the circle.
- When you reach the edge pull it downward to break off the frosting.
So easy right. Once you try it you’ll become addicted and you’ll want to put roses on everything! Now if you want to be silly and put some “blood” on your rose for our favorite evil President, just stir in some red food coloring to a little of the frosting and then place a few drops of the dyed frosting on your roses.
