Thanksgiving Dinner Cookies

Have you ever seen such a spectacular set of Thanksgiving dinner cookies all on a circle?! Food is my favorite part of Thanksgiving, so this set is an ode to all of the classic dishes served at an American Thanksgiving dinner. Check out the Thanksgiving Dinner online class here.

A small selection of the sets I’ve made are offered as online cookie decorating classes. For a full selection of all cookie sets I’ve made (both those that are classes and those that are detailed in full on the blog), click here.

All designs are made with a circle, which means less money spent on supplies! AND the use of sprinkles makes customizing the set with the age and/or initial SO much easier!!

The color palette doesn’t work for the birthday person? No problem, customize the color palette! 

Thanksgiving Dinner Cookies

What makes these Thanksgiving Dinner Cookies so special?

Designed as advanced beginner for more beginners looking to challenge their skills or a more advanced cookier looking to try out new techniques, textures and consistencies, the set is designed for anyone!

We’re working with 4 different consistencies (yes, you heard that right! but don’t worry… not 4 of each color!!) to achieve a variety of textures without minimal bags of icing overall (I promise!!). This is the perfect set for someone looking to get super creative with these whimsical takes on realistic dishes from Thanksgiving dinner. 

Every cookie is made on a CIRCLE!! So much variety and detail achieved with just one shape and limited tools means less money and less time spent prepping!

  • One AND two consistency outline and flood
  • Working with tipless bags (and cutting tipless bags)
  • Wet on wet technique

Apple Pie Cookie

While I imagined this as an apple pie, you could scrape other colors on the base to make it cherry or blueberry or something else!

Free Resources for this Set

For every class set, I still produce my usual YouTube videos. One is a sped-up compilation of the full set (at a more reasonable pace than the fast video above) and the second is a tutorial. This tutorial video is *not* at all like the class video.

The free YouTube tutorial video (below) shows each cookie in real-time with a voiceover, however, it is much shorter than the class videos and does not include any additional resources (classes include a 60+ page workbook).

I deliver my class videos as if I was teaching a live class, so a 20 minute YouTube tutorial can easily be a 2 hour class video. Either way, I like to provide different levels of information with different levels of investment. Choose the path that best suits you!
