Bernard's Baking Tips
- I put my cookie dough into 1-gallon zip-top plastic bags to chill.
- Use silver-coloured baking sheets without edges.
- Decorating the baked cookies the next day is ideal—if not, try to wait at least a few hours after they’ve come out of the oven.
- Meringue powder is available at cake decorating stores and hobby and craft stores. But you can substitute fresh egg whites if you like—just use equal amounts of egg whites and water.
