Afraid to wear an isty bitsy yellow polka dot bikini? Make up a cookie instead but don’t make them teenie weenie! It’s a great way to get into summer mode. However, beware that you’ll probably sing the classic song Itsy Bitsy Teenie Weenie Yellow Polka Dot Bikini by Bryan Hyland the entire time you are baking. We wanted to make an updated version of this classic bikini with some mix-and-match bathing suit tops and bottoms. Although yellow polka dots are fun, we added navy and some stripes to the mix for an extra pop. It’s no secret that we both love navy – it’s classic just like the song. Opt for elegance with these stylish cookies for your next pool party or beach get-together.
