“What should happen if you forget about me?” Pooh asks of his pal, Christopher Robin.

“Silly ol’ bear. I won’t ever forget about you, Pooh.  I promise.  Not even when I’m a hundred,” Christopher Robin replies.

For so many of us, we will never forget Winnie the Pooh, or his gloomy friend Eeyore or bouncy pal Tigger.  But in the upcoming Disney Studios release of Christopher Robin, Christopher Robin has grown up.  Will his stuffed pals from his childhood pals remember who he was?

I’ve been having so much fun with baked treats celebrating the silly ol’ bear.  My kids are also loving all the attention on Winnie the Pooh also.  In addition to enough treats to even bring a smile to Eeyore’s face, there are these adorable coloring pages and activity sheets available for free download.  Grab character coloring pages, plus adorable scenes from the movie.   There’s no one cuter to get lost in London with than Piglet, Tigger, Eeyore, and Pooh.

If you’ve never decorated sugar cookies with icing and thought it was going to require years of baking expertise, I’m here to tell you that you can absolutely do this.  These Winnie the Pooh cookies are the perfect way to start.  A solid golden yellow background and a few black piping details is all it takes to bring Winnie the Pooh to your cookie jar.

Winnie the Pooh Sugar Cookies

Ingredients: 

• 1 C of unsalted sweet cream butter, softened
• 1 1/2 C Powder sugar
• 1 tsp vanilla
• 1 egg
• 3 C of flour
• 1 tsp baking soda
• 1 tsp cream of tarter
• Cookie Cutter: Winnie the pooh shaped cookie cutter

Icing ingredients:

• 4 egg whites
• 1/2 tsp cream of tarter
• 1/2 tsp vanilla
• 4 1/2 C powder sugar
• Golden Yellow and Black gel food coloring
• 2 disposable piping bags fitted with a number 2 tip
• 1 squeeze bottles

Directions:

Preheat oven to 350 degrees.

Cover a cookie sheet with parchment paper and set aside.

Using a standing mixer, cream together the butter, powder sugar, vanilla and egg and mix until combined and creamy.

Using a large bowl, combined the flour, baking soda, and cream of tarter.

Gradually add in the dry ingredients and mix on low speed.  Using your hands continue to mix until fully combined.

The next step is rolling out your sugar cookie dough to cut your Winnie the Pooh shapes. Lightly flour a cutting board and knead the cookie dough a couple of times.  Roll out the dough to about 1/2 inch thick.  Cut out 12 pooh faces using your cookie cutter and place onto a cookie sheet.

Bake for 8 minutes or until lightly golden brown.

Repeat steps until completely out of dough.

Let cookies cool completely.

Royal Icing Directions:

Using the standing mixer, combine the egg whites, cream of tarter, vanilla and powder sugar and mix until combined and stiff peaks form.

Split the icing into 2 bowls.

Add in a few drops of the golden yellow gel color into one bowl and mix until combined.  Add in a few drops of the black gel color into the second bowl and mix until combined. Scoop some of the icing into the icing bags; you should still have some of the icing available.  You’ll be using the icing in both piping bags and in squeeze bottles.   The piping bags will outline and the icing in the squeeze bottle will fill in the face.

To make the icing a little thinner so it’ll easily fill, add in a few tablespoons of water into the remaining golden yellow icing and mix until combined.  Pour the golden yellow icing into the squeeze bottle. 

Fill in the Pooh face with the thinned icing from your squeeze bottle.  Tap the cookie gently to remove any bubbles.  Let the cookie dry overnight.

Once it’s completely dry, it’s time to add the facial features using black icing.  This cookie has the face outlined in black, plus all of Winnie the Pooh’s face in black.  I would keep a picture of Pooh’s face nearby to reference.

To make Pooh’s face, I think about stretched out rainbows, rounded triangles, and two circle eyes.
