How To make Frosted Diamonds
1/4 c Butter or regular margarine
1/4 c Shortening
1/2 c Sugar
2 Eggs
1 ts Vanilla
3 c Flour; sifted
1/8 ts Salt
1 ts Caraway seeds
White mountain frosting (recipe follows) 1/4 c Coarse pink decorating sugar
Beat butter and shortening until light; gradually add sugar, and beat until mixture is fluffy. Beat in eggs and vanilla, blending thoroughly. Sift together flour and salt; add to creamed mixture. Stir in caraway seeds. Roll dough thin, not more than 1/8", and cut in 2" diamonds with sharp knife or cookie cutter. Place 1/2" apart on lightly greased baking sheet. Bake in 325 oven 10 to 12 minutes. Remove from baking sheets and cool on racks. Spread cookies with White Mountain Frosting; sprinkle with pink sugar. WHITE MOUNTAIN FROSTING: Combine 1 cup sugar, 1/8 teaspoon cream of tartar and 1/4 cup water in small saucepan. Place over heat and stir until sugar dissolves. Continue cooking to soft ball stage (236) on candy thermomter. Meanwhile, add 1/2 teaspoon salt to 1 egg white; beat until stiff. Pour hot syrup in a fine stream into egg white, beating constantly until frosting is of spreading consistency. SOURCE: Farm Journal's Great Home Cooking In America (pg. 104-105) -----

How to Frost a Half Sheet Cake
***EDIT*** What I do now is I put down parchment on a cutting board, cover it in buttercream then lay the chilled cake on top and smoosh it down until it's level. Put the cardboard on top, fill the sides and ice it until its smooth with the bench scraper, put it in the freezer for 30 minutes then flip it back over and peel off the parchment that way you dont have to flip the buttercream. Dont know why I didnt think of that before.

* If you're anything like me, you may be a visual learner. When I first started out I learned everything from watching videos here on YouTube before I moved onto books from amazon and the library etc. Books are amazing tools to continue learning from, but learn in an easy and relaxed manner, in a healthy and positive way that works for YOU! :)
