The Academy Awards were on tonight. Did you watch? I love the Oscars, but I have to admit I only saw one of the films nominated for Best Picture. (2011 was a busy year for me.) Anyways, The Help was a great movie and I thought Octavia Spencer deserved her win. In honor of tonight’s awards show I made Oscar trophy cookies.
I was a little nervous the design of this cookie might look like gold camouflage. Being an all gold statue, there wouldn’t be a lot of contrasting colors when drawing it out on a cookie. I opted to do a shaded version of the trophy showcasing lowlights and highlights. I think if you squint your eyes you can see the bald man proudly holding his sword. Overall, I think the cookies came out pretty good.
Here’s a summary of tonight’s award results. Congrats to all the winners!
Love the academy award cookie. Having a party would like to give them out. How much per cookie
Thanks for your comment! Unfortunately, this design doesn’t ship well. When I made them for a party some broke in half. It’s a very large cookie (I wanted it to be trophy size) and it’s weak where it is thin in the middle.
Hi, these are amazing! Where did you purchase the cookie cutters?
Thanks, Steph! I couldn’t find a cutter for the size I wanted (I wanted them huge so they resembled the actual award). I ended up just hand-carving them out myself.
Thanks for sharing, any idea where I can find the cookie cutter? I’m having a hard time finding one.
