Happy Leap Year – Keroppi Cookie
Happy Leap Year – Frog Cookies & Sanrio Keroppi Cookies
Keroppi is my favorite
You really don’t even need cookies cutters to make shaped cookies. Today we cut out the image and put i on the back of a paper plate. The plate had enough was on it to keep oil from bleeding through the cutout.
Totally cheating on the Keroppi cookies. The others were done freehand. You have to be so careful with characters – they need to look just right.

Happy Leap Year Frog Cookies – so random…
I realized I’d have to wait four more years until leap year comes again, and who knows, maybe by then I will be into something else… basketweaving, organic gardening… quien sabe. We talked about how old each of the kids would be in four years. Timmy was so excited, and “I’m going to be seven!”
way to celebrate leap year! I just yelled at my kids all day to help me clean up and still don't have much to show for it. Who eats all the cookies?
We eat most of the cookies. The kids share them with friends at school. Helps with the popularity contest. Just kidding. I don't know, they just disappear. I give a lot away. Elders always love cookies. It's always good practice.
I'm glad you didn't waste the EXTRA day!!
Love the Kerroppi cookies! I've had a deck of cards with that little guys face on it for almost thirty years!! (that's actually a bit scary isn't it…..)
nothing scary about that! it's amazing you didn't loose one of them. thanks for looking & commenting 🙂 i'm really enjoying this cookie world.

I’m so glad you like these! I love Keroppi too! As to the decorating, just practice. If it’s not perfect, just eat it! 🙂 I didn’t use a cookie cutter, I cut these out by hand. Thanks for looking!

Hello there 🙂
Sorry but the only thing I understood, was that you cut out the image and put it on the back of a paper plate and then what??? Please, please explain exactly step by step on how you did these Keroppi cookies. I’m having my daughter’s first birthday party and her there is Hello Kitty and Keroppi and these would go perfect with her theme party… 🙂
Isabella,
Sorry I did not make the instructions very clear. I first print off the image of keroppi on to a piece of paper. Next, I glue the image to the back of a paper plate. You could also use thick paper. I prefer to use a paper plate because I know it is food safe. it shows how I use a template to cut out the correct dough shape.

So use the paper plate template to cut out the dough, place it in the freezer to chill, then bake as directed. For decorating I would follow the instructions in my Hello Kitty Tutorial. Placement is key for decorating.

For Keroppi I used a larger (size 5 wilton) tip to outline his face and body, then filled in the sections. I use a special projector to get the image just right. You could try to transfer the image using a parchment paper template – Again, see how I did this in the hello kitty post. Again, placement is key.
If you haven’t decorated many cookies start with the Hello Kitty Cookie.
Best of Luck!
