Thread Starter 
For Valentine's Day I have several people that LOVE my cookies, so I ended up making nearly 100 dozen!! I posted a picture of the naked cookies in the gallery...There are a dozen in each stack. Now I have to decorate all of them in the next 24 hours. Hope there is something good on TV so I can watch and take my mind off how bad my wrist is hurting!!

Now that's alot of cookies. I wanted to make some for valentines day but just looking at your pic makes me tired.
What kind of icing do you use? Can a person use just regular BC icing for cookies? I have always used the powdered sugar and crisco frosting but would like to try some new things.

Happy decorating

Hi,

I made 1500 (125 dozen) cookies last year for the company I work for......it was tough going but with good planning it was possible. Each cookie had to be individually wrapped as well.

Good luck.....let us know how it turned out.

RisqueBusiness....not sure if this will help you.

I made the NFSC one batch at a time and immediately rolled out and cut the hearts out and placed them on a cookie sheet and open froze them for about a half hour. While they we frezzing I made the next batch of cookie dough. When the frozen ones came out I placed them in a air tight container with plastic wrap between the cookie layers and back into the freezer.

Then, I spent the next day only baking (straight out the freezer) and making the icing. I used to bake two lots of cookies at a time because I have a thermofan oven...not sure if you can do this without a thermofan.

As soon as the ccokies were cool I iced and the next day I packaged.

HTH

Thermofan? is that like a convection oven? I have one in the shop that has 6 racks...wow..Maybe I can do this after all..

it's the rolling out part that takes so long!

since I'm just going to be using an edible image that part will be a piece of cake..ahhaha I said cake!

Thanks for the instructions!!
