1. Prepare your cookie dough recipe, cover, and refrigerate for at least 2 hours or according to the recipe instructions.2. Meanwhile, make and bake your cupcake recipe, using a standard 12-hole muffin pan lined with cupcake liners. Let the cupcakes cool on a wire rack.3. When the cookie dough is ready, preheat the oven to 350°F (180°C) and arrange a rack in the center position. Line a baking sheet with parchment paper.4. Lightly dust a clean, dry surface with flour and roll the cookie dough to a thickness of 1/8 inch. Use a cross cookie cutter or place a cross template on the dough and carefully cut around it with a small, sharp knife. You will need 12 crosses, plus a couple extra to allow for breakages. Arrange the dough on the prepared baking sheet. Bake for 10 to 12 minutes or as the recipe instructs—essentially until they are firm and lightly browned at the edges. Let cool completely on the baking sheets.5. To decorate, thin the royal icing if necessary to create a consistency for writing and tint it black with a smidgen of the food coloring paste.

Crush the Oreo cookies finely in a food processor or put them in a resealable plastic bag, seal, and crush with a rolling pin. They should be fine enough to resemble dirt.7.
