No, I'm not talking about the push-ups everybody hates to do.  I'm talking about the fun ice cream kind.  That delicious orange flavored ice cream made easy to hold and eat was my childhood favorite.  On a hot summer's day, nothing hits the spot better than some kind of ice cream.  I remember as kid having Flintstones push-ups.  I'm not sure what the Flintstones had to do with ice cream, but I enjoyed those push-ups. 

I've made many different kinds of ice cream cookies before and wanted to make something new.  I used this popsicle cookie cutter to create the push-ups.  I cut the cookie in half before baking.  I didn't do very well on documenting the process this time.  These cookies were pretty simple to make, so I had them completed before I realized I didn't take any photos.  I drew on the pushup shape with a food coloring marker.  I piped and flooded the push-up holder white.  While the icing was still wet, I piped on the red, yellow, and blue dots.  When that section was dry, I piped on the orange ice cream adding a small white highlight.  I iced this section in two parts to create the line that defines the top from the side.  Then I added a white handle with tiny bit of grey to define it as the handle.
