September Sugar Cookies

Hurray for my second Daring Bakers challenge!!, oh noes for failing at making them, hahahau. This month's challenge was to make cookies which show what September means to me. Being a Potterhead, the first thing I thought of was the annual Hogwarts Express journey on September 1st.

I am very happy to announce that renovations for a brand new kitchen and soliarium are now underway! Unfortunatly, I had to kitchen for most of this month and won't have one in time for next's.


Renovations started September 2nd, so I made this dough in my old kitchen literally the day before it was ripped apart. I rolled and froze it for a few weeks until I got the chance to use my friend's oven. I would not recommend freezing this dough, it resulting in very hard cookies, not at all ideal.

I had to work the next day so I didn't end up decorating the cookies until late the next night.



Being a Ravenclaw (hence the blog title), I incorporated some of my house colours into the cookie decor.

Yay for Ravenclaw colours, nay for non-canon patch and wax seal.

All in all, a fun project but my lack of kitchen made the cookies themselves yucky. Regardless, thanks for reading, and dftba!
