Back to school Alphabet letter cookies

My kids have always loved the stuffed icing cookies at the bakery.  They are so expensive that I have never bought them one before. (Grandma has though!)  So this is where I got my inspiration for this years "back to school" treat that the kids and I make every year right before school starts.  I usually find someone elses idea in a magazine or online but this year I was really short of time and had to come up with this at the store!  So here it is, our creation of alphabet letter google eye guys.  Don't you love the title?  And it's so easy for kids to do!

2 boxes of bakery small chocolate chip cookies
white icing ( we colored ours with blue food coloring since that was what kids wanted to do)
candy eyes (I got them in cake section at Michaels)
Black Wilson sparkle gel (to write the letters on the cookies)

Frost flat side of cookie and then put other cookie on top.  Frost top of that cookie.  Draw the letter on cookie and then add eyes.  Good practice for young kids with their letters!
