Adorable Artist Paint Palette Cookies with free printable gift tag – Thank you for coloring my world! Sweet treat idea and thank you for a teacher or use as a birthday party favor.  So many ideas for your little artist!

Artist Paint Palette Cookies with Gift Tag

Artist Paint Palette Cookies

We have the cutest, most easiest cookies for your little artist! First, this recipe requires no baking, just pick up sugar cookies at your local grocery store. Of course if you want a yummy sugar cookie recipe, we have one of those too! You will need some black Licorice Twizzlers Twists. If you have trouble finding those, we found some online. This will make the bristle of the brush and Air Heads will make your paint brush stick.

We also put together a sweet “thank you for coloring my world” gift tag. This free printable makes a sweet end of the year gift for a teacher or perhaps use as a birthday party favor for an artist paint birthday party!

Artist Paint Palette Cupcakes

Ingredients:

  • 8 Sugar Cookies, prepared
  • 1 Container White Frosting
  • 1 Piece Black Licorice Twist
  • 2 Orange Airheads Candy
  • 2 Cherry Airheads Candy
  • 1 White Mystery Airheads Candy
  • Food Coloring—red, orange, yellow, green blue
  • Frosting Piping Bags


Artist Paint Palette Cookies In process

Directions:

  1. Take each orange and cherry Airheads candy and cut them in half. Cut each of the halves in half lengthwise so you now have 4 pieces of each flavor. Roll each piece into a paintbrush shape.
  2. Cut ½” pieces of the black licorice. Slice each one open so it isn’t a tube shape. Lay each piece out and cut them each in half. Lay one piece of licorice over the end of each paintbrush.
  3. Cut small thin rectangular pieces of the white Airheads candy. Wrap one of these around the seam where the licorice is laying on the paintbrush. Make sure you wrap them tight, so the paintbrush and licorice bristles don’t come apart.
  4. Divide the frosting into 5 small bowls and color each frosting bowl a different color. You can put each color frosting into a small plastic bag for piping if you choose to, or just use a knife to dollop.
  5. Cut out a small hole in the bottom half of each cookie so it looks like the hole on a paint board palette.
  6. Pipe a dot of each color frosting along the top half edge of each cookie.
  7. Use a dot of frosting to attach a paintbrush on top each cookie.
  8. These little paint palettes are cute and easy to make for any party!
