Alphabet Butter Cookies


Adrian starts learning alphabets and numbers now.  I thought it would be fun for him if I could make the learning into his daily life, instead of just teaching him from books.  So, this was how I thought of baking alphabets butter cookies.  His sister, was excited on my idea and volunteered to squeeze out the mixture from piper to form alphabets.  See the picture above for what his sister has baked for him.   

Alphabet Butter Cookies
