Mr. and Mrs. Potato Head Cookies

I am a HUGE Toy Story and I love all of Andy's friends, especially Mr. and Mrs. Potato Head. Having a child with ASD (autism spectrum disorder), the series of Toy Story movies have become some of our favorites since the very first one. Toy Story 4 is in theaters beginning June 21 and we were inspired to make some cookies of our favorite characters.

I have included all the ingredients and step-by-step directions.

What You Will Need:

Your favorite sugar cookie cutout recipe, prepared
Your favorite frosting recipe (white)
Black Fondant
Pink Fondant
Orange Fondant
Red Fondant
Yellow Fondant
Brown Food Coloring Gel
Yellow Food Coloring Gel
Candy Eyes (or use fondant)
Candy Moustaches (or use fondant)

Roll out your sugar cookies, and use an egg shaped cookie cutter to cut out as many cookies as you can.
Bake according to the recipe, and set aside to cool completely.

Place your frosting in a bowl, and add in brown and yellow food coloring until you get a light brown color.
Frost the cookies evenly, avoiding the edges.

Place two eyes about ⅓ of the way down on each cookie.

Roll a piece of pink fondant into a 3D triangle for Mrs. Potato Head cookies. And roll a piece of orange fondant into a 3D triangle for Mr. Potato Head cookies.

Roll a piece of pink fondant into a 3D triangle for Mrs. Potato Head cookies. And roll a piece of orange fondant into a 3D triangle for Mr. Potato Head cookies.

Place a moustache candy between Mr. Potato Head’s nose and mouth.
Take a medium sized piece of red fondant, and roll like a snake. Shape into mouths for Mr. and Mrs. Potato Head.
Place a thin sheet of black fondant behind Mr. Potato Head’s mouth if you would like it to be open.

Roll thin pieces of black fondant, and place them above the eyes for eyebrows. 

Roll a large piece of black fondant into a sheet, and shape it into a hat for Mr. Potato Head cookies. 

Frost the very top of Mrs. Potato Head cookies with remaining white frosting to make her hat. 

Roll five small balls of orange fondant, and place them into the shape of a flower, and add it to the center of Mrs. Potato Head’s hat.

Enjoy!

We had so much fun making these cookies!  Pin this post so you can come back and get the directions!
