I would say around 1/2 cup-1 cup depending on how many cookies you plan on decorating.

Question Hi, I am following up on a question that someone asked already. Does this dry or does it remain sticky? If you know the answer please let me know. Thank you.

Hi- I spoke to Esty and she said she recommends letting them dry completely in the fridge for a few hours so they are no longer very sticky. The cookies might still remain tacky but you should be able to then layer them with pieces of parchment paper in between.

does the paint harden/dry? or does it remain gooey and sticky?
ie. can i stack them, or will the marshmallow paint get stuck onto the other cookies

2 Questions 1. Have you ever tried this with marshmallow fluff? I (melt &) use it instead of marshmallows in Rice Krispie treats, would it work here?
2. Does the paint ‘harden’ or does it stay sticky?

Freezer friendly? Can the cookies be frozen after they are painted?

I’ve never tried freezing them once painted, I am not certain but I think it would fine.

How long in advance can I make the paint? will it stay good for a few hours or it gets hard fast?

It will probably get hard, but you may be able to stick it back in the microwave to loosen back up.

Cute, but… Cute idea, but this is not vegetation friendly. Marshmallows have fish gelatin in them.

You can use vegan marshmallows for this recipe and they should come out the same 🙂
