This Easter Egg Wildflower Sugar Cookie recipe looks extravagant but is secretly quite simple to make! The no-chill-required, sugar cookie cut out recipe and dip-and-drip icing make this a great recipe for beginners! Cookies are decorated with wild violets and dried lavender with a pistachio flavored icing.&nbsp;Sugar cookies typically require the dough to chill in the refrigerator for a long-period of time. This Easter Egg Wildflower Sugar Cookie Recipe tastes great, is semi-homemade, and does not require any chill time! Simply mix one package of Betty Crocker Sugar Cookie Mix, with 3 Tablespoons all purpose flour, 1 stick of melted butter, and 1 egg until well combined. I just used a wooden spoon to mix my ingredients together, so no fancy mixer is required.Press the play button on the movie below to see a 1 minute video of how I baked, iced, and decorated the Easter Egg Wildflower Cookies!Flour your surface before placing your dough. I prefer to cover the top of my dough with plastic wrap before rolling so that the dough does not stick to the rolling pin. Roll out your dough to 1/4 inch thick. Place your cookie cutter in a bit of flour before each cut. This ensure that the cookie cutter comes out clean each time. Use a sandwich spreader to carefully place cut out cookies on parchment-lined cookie sheets. Bake cookies at 375º F for 7-9 minutes.&nbsp;Simply mix together 2 cups of powdered sugar with 6-7 Tablespoons of heavy whipping cream and 1/4 teaspoon of pistachio or almond extract. You want the frosting to be runny enough to coat the cookie without clumping. Add more or less heavy cream to your powdered sugar until you are happy with the consistency. Dip your completely cooled cookie face down into the frosting, swirl it around to coat, remove and shake off excess frosting. Immediately place wildflowers on cookie and allow icing to dry and set before storing.&nbsp;&nbsp;Every year in early spring, the forest floor of the woods behind our home erupts in a carpet of wild violets. And every year I come up with a new and fun way to use these delicate, edible flowers. Wild Violets are high in Vitamin A and Vitamin C. They have a sweet and delicate taste and are a beautiful addition to your spring recipes. Last year, I used them in my blog post: How to Make Wild Violet and Lavender Flower Ice. Also, I used wild violets to garnish my Boursin Chicken Puff Pastry Hand Pies Recipe.&nbsp;&nbsp;Pick, wash, rinse, and completely dry your wild violets and place them face down between two sheets of parchment paper. Press your flowers by placing cutting boards, books, weights, or other flat, heavy objects on the parchment for at least an hour. If you want flowers to be dried, press for several days.&nbsp;If you are unable to access wild violets, don’t worry! There are several different types of spring wildflowers that are edible including:Make sure you are 100% certain of the species of the plant before consuming. If you feel more comfortable purchasing wildflowers, you can find a variety of edible wildflowers for sale on Amazon. The French Lavender can also be found on Amazon!
