November means movember, a movement to raise awareness and funds for men’s health issues, specifically prostate cancer and other cancers that affect men. I think it’s a great cause, I respect a great ‘stache on a dude and my gentlemen friend is an active fundraiser, so for the 2nd year in a row I baked a batch of mustache cookies to support the cause.
Movember Mustache Cookies
Last year’s were pretty ghetto and cut free-hand with a knife (that rarely turns out well) so this year I took my game to the next level and bought some sweet mustache cookie cutters from Fuzzy Ink. I also really upped the ante by adding GOLD sparkles because I like gooooold. I strayed from my usual sugar cookie recipe and used this one instead from All Recipes: I was ok with the result. I say only ok because frankly these cookies seemed a bit too something, doughy, or sugary or something. Definitely edible, but next year I’ll go back to my old reliable: Sugar Cookies Redux.
Now for the most important part, donate to the cause! How can you NOT support men’s health, and skeevy hipster mustaches everywhere? Don’t be a hater. Donate now!
So many things, so little time.
