SY pill” Recipe and Photo Courtesyof Wilton Industries, Inc. (NAPSA)—This Father’s Day, grill Dad a great meal, then “crown” him with a giant cookie for dessert. Mom and the kids can make the regal cookie. It’s simple. Just press a basic sugar cookie dough into the Crown Pan, bake and cool. The top of the crown is piped with golden icing (white decorator icing tinted with golden-yellow color) and studded with precious chocolate candy gems. A fluffy white icing showcases the bottom border. Cut into pieces to serve. It is large enough for 15—so if Dad is also Granddad and the extended family is celebrating with you, you're covered.
