Experiment #3: Cream Cheese Cutout Cookies for Easter

I wanted to bake some cookies for Easter and decided to go with a recipe I had already tried. Grandma and I baked these same cookies the first time we got together for my baking lessons. This recipe is great for every holiday! I had originally thought I would just find an oval shaped cookie cutter and decorate the cookies to look like Easter eggs but I could find no such cutter. After a bit of a search I finally found an egg shaped cookie cutter at the Bulk Barn and it had a pattern to follow which worked out well. I also found a bunny and a hatching chick cookie cutter that I just couldn't pass up...they both looked adorable. I think the cookies turned out pretty well - cute and yummy! You can find the recipe for these cutouts on my "Baking With Grandma" blog.
Is it a beater or a flute?

Holden and I made the dough together.

Grandma whipped up some icing for me while I was at her house baking bread.
