{ corn, cookies and crustaceans }

Corn on the cob, cookie style! The perfect take-along treat for a crawfish or lobster boil, picnic basket, or barbecue in the back yard. Pick your summer occasion, and it pretty much works.

So, let's talk corn cookies. I started out with a full-size corn cutter.

Then I cut the cookie dough corn in half, a la crawfish boil style.


I outlined and flooded my baked "corn", and let it sit overnight (but a few hours would do).


I then piped in white corn-size dots randomly throughout the cookie, and filled in the remainder of the space with yellow "kernels."


Voila! The perfect size snacky snack ... and not too heavy, not too frozen, no seeds to worry about spitting -- just summertime sweet cookie goodness.
