Ah, romance.
These cookies were inspired by some of the most famous romances in history.
Lucy & Ricky....obviously.
Danny & Sandy...as a young girl, I was fairly certain I would don a leather outfit and high heels & sing "You're the One that I Want" at a carnival with my true love.
{It hasn't happened. YET.}
Homer & Marge...unconditional love if I've ever seen it.
Ken & Barbie...have you SEEN Toy Story 3?
Jim & Pam...I've only seen a few seasons of The Office on cable, but Jim & Pam are SO DARN SWEET! Oh, I just love them.
Carrie & Big...don't tell me if they break up in the movies. I prefer my Carrie/Big memories right where they ended for me, with the last TV show.
Gomez & Morticia...they just might be my all-time favorite TV romance. Go back and watch The Addams Family again. They make me smile EVERY time! ♥
I asked Mr. E if he could name some famous couples. His first response? "Charles and Diana." My (yelled) reply, "CHARLES AND DIANA?!?" He looked at me like I was the crazy one. After he explained himself for a minute, it occurred to me. "Do you mean William and Kate?!?" Him: "Yes." Men.
No true love list would be complete without Rhett & Scarlett. Every time I read Gone with the Wind, I hope they'll run across the yard at Tara and into each other's arms. It never happens. Darn it.
I had a few more on my list (Elvis & Priscilla, Fred & Wilma, Han & Leia, PW & MM, Roy & Dale) but as is always the case with "writing" on cookies, I had several mistakes. Even on the "good ones," my handwriting is not as cute as it was in my head. :)
These are as simple as an outline and fill with royal icing...
Easy, peasy.
Actually, I liked the way they looked plain, too. Simple black outline. Love it every time.

These are as simple as an outline and fill with royal icing...
- I used AmeriColor Super Black for the outline and writing,
- #3 tip for the outline, #1 tip for the writing,
- hearts: soft pink, deep pink mixed with electric pink, and super red (all AmeriColor)
- to avoid bleeding, I let the flooded hearts sit for a few hours before adding the names
What names would you put on YOUR true love cookies?
