cookie sushi...oishii


oishii...Japanese for "delicious." At least according to google. I do not know Japanese, nor have I ever been there, nor have I developed a taste for the ever-popular sushi. But THIS sweet sushi is another matter.


cookie sushi:

you will need:

mini circle cookies (I use 1 1/2 inch cutter)
plain frosting
shredded coconut
brightly colored fruit leather
swedish fish (optional)

step 1: smear frosting on a circle cookie, stack another cookie on top.
step 2: smear frosting on your cookie stack, stack a third cookie on top.
step 3: roll out a piece of green fruit leather. carefully cut a strip of leather slightly higher than the stack of cookies and slightly longer when wrapped around the cookies.
step 4: smear a bit of frosting on the leather and roll around the cookie stack.
step 5: plop a dollop of frosting on top of the cookie stack and press down with the back of the spoon.
step 6: sprinkle coconut on top and press down with your fingers.
step 7: cut snippets of red, orange or other color fruit leather and place on top.
optional step 8: for creepier sushi, snip the heads of swedish fish and place on top.
