Steps:
- Gently place eggs in single layer in large saucepan. Add enough cold water to cover eggs by 1 inch. Cover. Bring just to boil on high heat. Remove from heat. Let stand 12 minutes. (Adjust time up or down by 3 minutes for each size larger or smaller)
- Pour off hot water and rapidly cool eggs by running them under cold water (or place in ice water) until completely cooled.
- Mix 1/4 cup boiling water, 1 teaspoon vinegar, 1/8 teaspoon oil and 4 to 8 drops food color in shallow bowl. Repeat if second color is desired. Make sure to agitate mixture with fork or small whisk so oil droplets are small. Gently roll egg in one color for 30 seconds or until the egg is the desired shade. Transfer the egg to second color and repeat the process. Use a slotted spoon, wire egg holder or tongs to add and remove eggs from dye. Allow eggs to dry. Wipe away excess oil with a paper towel.

Steps:
- Sift flour, baking powder, and salt into a bowl.
- Put butter and sugar in the bowl of an electric mixer fitted with the paddle attachment. Mix on medium speed until pale and fluffy. Mix in eggs and lemon juice. Reduce speed to low. Gradually mix in flour mixture. Divide dough in half; flatten each half into a disk. Wrap each in plastic. Refrigerate until firm, at least 1 hour or overnight.
- Preheat oven to 325 degrees, with racks in upper and lower thirds. Let one disk of dough stand at room temperature just until soft enough to roll, about 10 minutes. Roll out dough between two pieces of plastic wrap to 1/4 inch thick. Remove top layer of plastic wrap. Cut out cookies with a 6-inch fluted egg-shaped cookie cutter. Transfer cookie dough on plastic wrap to a baking sheet. Transfer baking sheet to freezer; freeze until very firm, about 15 minutes. Remove baking sheet from freezer and transfer shapes to baking sheets lined with nonstick baking mats. Roll out scraps, and repeat. Repeat with remaining disk of dough.
- Bake, switching positions of sheets and rotating halfway through, until edges turn golden, 15 to 18 minutes. Let cool on sheets on wire racks.
- Divide royal icing evenly among three small bowls. Color each portion of icing with desired shade of food coloring, stirring with a toothpick to combine. Transfer each color of icing to a separate small squirt bottle. Using the colored icing, decorate according to template instructions.
EASTER EGG COOKIES
This year your decorated Easter eggs could be plump cookies--a treat that will delight children and adults alike. You bake light-textured cookies shaped like eggs, glaze 1/2 of the cookies with lemon icing and 1/2 with chocolate, then decorate all of them with the colored icing you can buy in tubes or pressurized cans.

Steps:
- Cream powdered sugar and butter for cookies in a bowl with an electric mixer until smooth. Add eggs, 1 at a time, beating well after each addition. Stir in lemon zest.
- Combine sifted flour with baking powder and salt. Sift again, then add to the butter mixture alternately with the milk, stirring after each addition until just combined. Cover and refrigerate at least 2 hours or overnight.
- Preheat the oven to 375 degrees F (190 degrees C). Grease a cookie sheet.
- Remove cookie dough from the refrigerator. Lightly dust your hands with flour and roll 2 tablespoons dough between your palms into a 3-inch long cylinder with tapering ends. Place 2 inches apart on the prepared cookie sheet.
- Bake in the preheated oven until cookies are a pale straw color, about 12 minutes. Remove from the oven and immediately transfer cookies to wire racks. Allow to cool thoroughly, about 30 minutes.
- While the cookies are cooling, prepare icings. Combine powdered sugar, lemon juice, and warm water for lemon icing in one bowl, and combine powdered sugar, warm water, chocolate, and vanilla for chocolate icing in a second bowl. Stir both icings until smooth and thin enough to pour.
- Put waxed paper under the racks of cookies. Pour about 1 tablespoon lemon icing over a cookie, beginning in the center and continuing around the sides until cookie is evenly coated. Repeat to frost 1/2 of the cookies with lemon icing and the other 1/2 with chocolate icing. Scoop up an icing that drips on the waxed paper and stir into the remaining icing. Use extra icing as needed to coat cookies. Let icing dry until no longer sticky, about 30 minutes.
- Use tubes or pressurized cans of decorating icing to make your own fanciful design of flowers, geometric shapes, or Easter motifs.

Steps:
- Line two baking sheets with parchment paper. In a large bowl, sift together flour, salt, and baking powder. Set aside.
- In bowl of electric mixer fitted with paddle, cream butter on medium speed. Gradually add granulated sugar; beat until fluffy. Add eggs gradually; beat until fluffy. On low speed, add vanilla and reserved dry ingredients; mix until combined. Divide dough into two balls; wrap in plastic wrap. Flatten into disks. Refrigerate 30 minutes.
- Heat oven to 325 degrees. In a small bowl, whisk egg white with 1 tablespoon water until frothy. On a lightly floured surface, roll out one ball of dough to a 1/4-inch thickness.
- Using 1 1/2- or 2 1/2-inch-round fluted cookie cutters, cut out shapes. Place on baking sheets, spacing 2 inches apart. Brush tops with egg wash. Place a pansy on top of each cookie; affix petals with more egg wash. Sprinkle sanding sugar over pansies. Bake until lightly golden, 8 to 10 minutes. Transfer to wire rack to cool. Repeat with remaining dough. Store in an airtight container up to 1 week.
MARBLEIZED EGGS
Steps:
- 1. Decide the color or combinations you want to use-you may use one or more colors of paint for each marbling bath.
- 2. For each bath, fill a roasting pan with about 4 inches of water. Put on the rubber gloves. Add about 1 teaspoon of each color paint in the chosen combination. Swirl the end of a skewer through the paint.
- 3. Place an egg on the end of a skewer. Swirl it around through the paint and water. When the paint has adhered to the egg in a marbled pattern, remove the egg from the skewer to an egg carton and let it dry.
- 4. Repeat this process for each egg, using the different color marbleizing baths as you wish.
- 5. To dispose of paint responsibly, pour each bath slowly through a coffee filter, letting the water drain down the sink and capturing the paint. Throw away the paint.
EASTER EGG COOKIES
My mother started baking these cookies with me and my eight brothers and sisters when I was a child, and I carried on the tradition with our four youngsters when they were little. Now, my children are grown and can make these cookies with their own tots. -Barbara Neuweg, West Point, Iowa
