I shared a photograph of these end year, together with never quite got simply about to sharing the recipe - sorry!  These are a cute add-on to a bridal shower, rehearsal dinner or birthday party... if yous alter the mention to Birthday Cake Cookies.  They are a mix betwixt a saccharide cookie together with a chocolate chip cookie without the chocolate chip.  They are softer together with chewier than a saccharide cookie because of the add-on of crisco, together with in that place is no chocolate-brown sugar, thus they don't bring that browned, caramel character of a chocolate chip.

They gustation similar vanilla cake, cookies.  For me, what makes them "Wedding Cake Cookies" is the add-on of almond extract to the icing.  The combination of vanilla cake together with almond icing is thus proficient - simply similar a marriage cake.   Of course, yous tin brand the icing whatever color you'd similar for to a greater extent than festive together with fun occasions.  I intend some argent dragees would wearing clothing these upwards for a bridal shower, too.
