Now these are fun! I think its awesome promo for the upcoming pirates of the Caribbean movie!
I love the pirates of the Caribbean movies! These cookies are so much fun and i bet they were a blast to make.
Those cookies are so cute. You do have a lot of talent in creating such wonderful cookie designs. I wish I had some of that talent!
What a great idea for a party. It’s always fun to have a themed party based on a movie.
How creative is that and they looks yummy. My son would love to have some of those, arrr.
The cookies are so nice to look at I would think twice before I ate it. I am excited to see the new Pirates of the Caribbean movie. I am marking my calendar!
Sounds like the perfect thing to do before the next movie comes out. My daughter would love making those cookies and decorating all those pirate flags. I am not sure I would be good at it, but it would be fun trying.
This could be a great addition for a Pirates birthday theme. Would love to try this recipe. It’s always fun to be a kid once in a while.
Baking isn’t the problem for me it is decorating deserts. I lack either an artistic touch or the patience to make sweet treats look really great. Nice job with these pirate flag cookies.
I cannot wait to see this movie! I love Johnny Depp and Javier Bardem. I think this might be the best movie of the franchise!
I loved all the other Pirates of the Caribbean movies. I am sure I will love this one! These cookies are cute.
What a cute idea! My kids are finally old enough to see the Pirates of the Caribbean movies, and this would make for a really fun movie night.
Aww, these cookies are so cute. I wish I was good a baking and decorating with frosting!
These cookies look absolutely amazing – I can never get icing to look that good. We are really looking forward to the new movie!
I have seen almost all of these movies. I cannot wait to see the new one that’s coming out. Can you deliver those cookies to me? Mine would never turn out that nice. Great job on them.
Oh I love it. So creative and fun. I bet it would be an awesome cookie party serving these pirate flag cookies.
These are fabulous! I do love my cookies, and these look delicious.
Always fun to have a party and base it off of a movie. These pirate cookies are really cute and I am sure they were a big hit.
I love the Pirates of The Caribbean franchise (in fact, Pirates of The Caribbean is one of my all-time favorite Disney rides) and I can’t wait to see the newest film later this month. These Pirates of The Caribbean inspired cookies look so adorable (and yummy!).
