On Monday Katy (therentmatrix) and I decided to make Star Trek cookies. They're delicious sugar cookies with royal icing on top, recipes courtesy Alton Brown. I'm not experienced with piping (and I cut the tip of the plastic bag for the red icing way too big so the red piping looks awfs), and Katy smeared clothes on with a spoon (see: the blue shirts, gold shirts, and pants), so they're pretty ugly, but still kinda cute. I like to think I did a pretty nice job on the hair (except for Gaila's, sorry girl).

The main crew:



From left to right, top row: Scotty, Gaila, Sulu, Chekhov; bottom row: Uhura, McCoy, Spock, Kirk. The Gaila cookie was colored with green food coloring and the Uhura one with cocoa powder before baking. Kirk's mouth got fucked up due to plastic bag malfunction; I like to think he's pouting because I like the Spock cookie more. And yeah, the Chekhov cookie has CURLS. Cause he's a total GQMF.

The redshirts:



We ate these first. There was a headless one that had a transporter malfunction during the journey from cookie sheet to cooling rack, but he had already been eaten before we took pictures. And yeahh, the dresses kind of ended up way too short.

The other random people:



The naked one (plus another one that had already been eaten) was going to be a random gold shirt, but we didn't make very much yellow icing, so. He's from some sort of alien species that practices nudism.

And tada! They were fucking delicious, even if Tony insisted we shouldn't do almond extract instead of vanilla. Then they would have been even more fucking delicious. Enjoy vicariously!
