Hello, this is Ari :).
I recently heard that Line Friends collaborated with BTS and created really cute characters with full of charms.
I thought this would be a great tutorial as I have big interest in new characters and fans would love it as well!
I hope you guys would enjoy today’s baking.
Then let’s start today’s fun and creative baking! Zoom!
Today’s ingredients!
As there are quite many characters, I prepared this tutorial with icing cookie recipe so you guys can easily follow.
These are ingredients for cookies, these are for icing.
First, 200g of cake flour,
100g of unsalted butter at room temperature,
80g of brown sugar,
A half of an egg. For a half of an egg, beat one egg and divide into two portions.
A pinch of salt, and 1/ 4 of vanilla extract.
And for the icing ingredients,
100g of powdered sugar
20g of egg whites
The amount of icing ingredients differs by sizes of cookies. Start with 100g of powdered sugar and 20g of egg whites as you can make more icing if it’s not enough for decorating.
And the food colorings which will be used today.
The last ingredient is lemon extract!
Lemon extract makes the icing to look creamier, adjusts the thickness, and also has natural disinfect qualities! This is essential.
A whisk or hand mixer
A spatula, sifter, rolling pin and mixing bowl
Then let’s start
Step 1 – Making cookie dough First, gently beat the butter at room temperature. And mix every time when you add each of these ingredients: brown sugar, beaten egg mixture, a pinch of salt, and vanilla extract.
Sift and put in cake flour. Stir as you scoop the flour to make it into small dry, clumped pieces of flour.
Now clump it into one and knead the dough.
Step 2 – Resting the dough Put the dough in a plastic bag and roll it out. We will let it rest in the fridge for about 30 minutes~
When the resting is done, fold the dough to clump into one piece again. Put it back in the plastic bag and roll it out evenly to about 5mm thickness.
Step 3 – Designing cookies Now trace the shape of the characters with a knife or a tool. (I matched all the designs to 6.5cm in diameter)
You can neatly cut the cookies out when you put some flour on the knife.
Cookies may be hard to shape when the coolness goes away. Put it in the freezer for a while to harden the dough, and you can work on it again.
Now carefully take the cookies out. It would be better to trim the edges, right?
Before baking, put them in the freezer for 5 minutes to harden. (Shapes will come out prettier when the dough is firm!)
Put them onto the baking pan right after taking them out from the freezer, and bake in a preheated oven.
Step 4 - Baking Preheat: 200 degrees for 20 minutes
Bake: 180 degrees for 10 minutes
Place the baked cookies on a cooling rack to cool~
Step 5 – Making icing Now let’s make icing. First put the powdered sugar and egg whites~
When you mix the powdered sugar with egg whites, you get this dull color. Mix well enough so you get this fluffy, creamy white color.
Take as much as you need, and mix with a food coloring to adjust the thickness.
Add drops of lemon extract to see if the dropped mark blends in within 5 seconds.
Step 6 - Decorating with icing Now, it’s time for icing! Draw a border and fill in with color.

When the background color has been dried up, draw eyes and mouth as well. It dries pretty quickly as the weather is dry these days~
★BT21 Kind Alpaca RJ
For a cookie that requires a lot of background color, see if the mark blends in with 5 seconds. The nose, eyes, or mouth shouldn’t spread out, so check and see if it dries within 8 seconds.
★BT21 Space Robot VAN
For the decoration which needs to fill halves of icing like this one, you can fill in the half while the other half isn’t dry yet, and shake to connect the icing into one.
Draw the eyes and mouth after the background(face) has been dried.

Tada~ BTS Icing Cookies are completed!
As the characters have their own personalities, they are very eye-catching. They’re really cute!
It would be a waste to eat them for all the decorating, so I will just eat the cookie I baked.
It tastes like vanilla cookie~ Not so sweet. Icing itself is sweet, so it would be good to make dough less sweet, right?
As I’ve mentioned several times, it’s double the fun to make icing cookies with friends than alone.
Please try making them with your friends! If you’re making them alone, play a nice music Hehe. This requires a lot of concentration so you get hungry as well. I guess you can say this is a baking which is… good for diet?
Well how was BTS Icing Cookies I’ve made today?
