Grumpy Cat Cookies
Grumpy Cat is one of the world’s most beloved and recognizable felines, known for her permanently scowling face. She’s helped spread cat love across social media platforms like no other; even making an appearance at SXSW Interactive Festival in Austin!
These cat-shaped cookies are the ideal treat for your favorite feline friend. Made with chocolate graham crackers, milk chocolate and white shredded coconut, they’re finished off with cream cheese frosting and some festive sprinkles. The icing can also be used to decorate the grahams; however, we suggest saving any chocolate-dipped treats for later.
These feline-approved treats are so easy to make that you won’t even need a recipe! Just double check the instructions for optimal results – using quality ingredients and letting the cake cool before taking it out of the oven will ensure they look as delicious as they taste!
Hello Kitty Cookies
Hello Kitty Cookies are an adorable way to celebrate the Lunar New Year and wish your friends good luck. These tasty treats require only simple ingredients and take only minutes to prepare – perfect for celebrating any special occasion!
Make these treats with a hello kitty face cookie cutter and sugar cookie dough. You can find these items at your grocery store or online.
You’ll also need small paint brushes to decorate the face of your cat. Use a larger brush for painting on the pink bow, medium brush for painting on her nose and thin brush for drawing in her eyes and whiskers.
These adorable treats make an ideal birthday or Valentine’s Day favor! Additionally, they make wonderful gifts for any kitty fanatic!
Cat-shaped Ice Cream Sandwiches
These are an ideal way to get your kids excited about eating ice cream. All that is necessary is some cookie dough and some delicious ice cream!
I used chocolate cake mix for these cookies, but you could also use yellow cake mix or plain vanilla ice cream. If you don’t care for chocolate then use marshmallows in place of ice cream when filling your sandwiches!
To assemble the sandwich, place an upside down cat head cookie on top of one of the bottom cat faces and press firmly down. Repeat this process for all remaining pairs of cat head & face cookies.
Once your ice cream has hardened, wrap it all tightly in plastic and store in the freezer overnight. This makes them super convenient to take out of the freezer and enjoy fresh out of the freezer!
Cat-shaped Cake Pops
Cake pops are an effortless and delightful way to celebrate any special occasion. Plus, they’re an economical way to save money when purchasing cake mix and frosting at the grocery store.
Make these Hello Kitty cake pops by baking a box of cake mix according to the package directions. After it has cooled completely, crumble it into a large bowl and add one tablespoon of frosting at a time until the mixture is moist enough to hold its shape.
Once the cake balls are baked, dip them in melted candy coating, making sure they are completely submerged. Let sit for 30 minutes before decorating them.
Create spikes of chocolate fur on each pop by using a fork. Insert them into a Styrofoam block and let dry completely.
Once your cake pops are decorated, use a black edible marker to draw on eyes, whiskers and mouth. You could also decorate them with candy corn or yellow sprinkles for ears as well as attaching red jumbo heart sprinkles or mini red M&Ms for an elegant bow.
