Teacher/Nurse Appreciation Cookie Gift Basket Idea
Music: Go easy 01
Musician: Xuxiao
Teacher and Nurse appreciation week is fast approaching, and I’ve got a GREAT gift idea to show those who work tirelessly for us just how much we love them. If you’re a cookie decorator, I’ll show you just how easy it is to make some CUTE nacho cookies with jalapeño royal icing transfers. There is also a link to the transfer sheet and adorable TAG below! You can even add these decorated cookies to a fiesta themed gift basket shown towards the end of this video. As a prior teacher myself, receiving handwritten notes from my students was the absolute best, and any gift cards or edibles were an appreciated plus! This gift idea has all of those things. I hope you find this gift idea useful as you prepare to shower all of the amazing teachers and nurses in your life!

      There are several different factors that can affect the drying process such as climate in your area, etc, but I usually leave my flooded cookies out over night to dry. 😊 The icing acts as a blanket to keep the cookie from drying out, so it’ll be just fine under the air circulation as it dries.
