The Sugar Cookie Cake
I made a cake using the "lofthouse"brand of sugar cookies for my mom's 50th birthday. She loves those cookies more than any other sweet on earth. My husband was away for basic training for the Air Force and with three kids under the age of 7, I really couldn't put a full afternoon of work into her cake. Soooo, knowing her love of these cookies my kids I went into the local grocery store and purchased enough packages of cookies so that we at least had 50. We bought the key lime, orange, strawberry,rasberry and I believe lemon. When we got home we layered them on a platter that had the same color as the frostings on the cookies. Tried to arrange the cookies so that they were rotating in color. It took just about an hour(probably would've been faster had there not been so many little hands trying to eat them). Put the candles on the cookies that were not covered up and it turned out great. Not one cookie was left over and my mom was very pleased. It was nothing spectactular but was the thought that counted!!!
