Follow along as we decorate these charming Clamshell Sandwich Cookies, step by step. Watch how we transform simple cookies into delightful ocean treasures with buttercream, sprinkles, and edible pearls!
Instructions
Prepare the Cookies: Start by baking your favorite shell-shaped cookies. Let them cool completely before decorating.
Decorate the Top Shell: Take one of the shell cookies that will serve as the top. Spread a smooth layer of buttercream over the surface. Gently dip the frosted side into a sprinkle mix, ensuring an even coating of sprinkles on the buttercream.
Add Buttercream to the Bottom Shell: For the bottom shell cookie, pipe a swirl of buttercream in the center. This will act as the "cushion" for your pearl.
Assemble the Clamshell: Place an edible pearl or candy in the center of the buttercream swirl on the bottom shell. Carefully sandwich the top shell cookie onto the bottom, ensuring the pearl is positioned nicely in between.
Finish and Serve: Press lightly to secure the cookies together, taking care not to squeeze out the buttercream. Your Clamshell Sandwich Cookie is now ready to be enjoyed!
