Did you hear? Tie-dye is back. But now it’s not just that grimy T-shirt your friend who still follows Phish will never wash. It’s couture. And thanks to Rick Martinez’s so-very-2020 natural-dye Swirl-n-Dip method, it’s also edible. Best of all? The butter cookie that acts as your canvas is extremely simple to make (like, six ingredients simple), so you can spend most of your time on the fun part: unleashing your inner artiste. When you’re decorating, no need to panic if your first attempts don’t work out. Simply wipe off the failed glaze, let the cookie dry for about five minutes, and try again.
