Add a sweet touch to your April Showers Bridal Shower with umbrella cookies.

Kellie of Kellie's Kandies & Cookies made these adorable treats for baby and bridal showers. These cookies are prepared with serious skill, but a simpler version could be created with a bit less detail.

Steps:

Bake sugar cookies in the shape of umbrellas. Use an umbrella-shaped cookie cutter if you can find one. Or create a cardboard umbrella shape to use as a pattern: place it on the cookie dough and trace around using a knife to make the cookies.
Make a sheer icing using 1 cup of powdered sugar and 2 - 4 tablespoons of milk tinted with pink food coloring. Or tint the icing in the color of your baby shower.
Ice cookies and allow to set.
Use complementary colors of decorator's icing to create the details and decor on the umbrella.
