Sugar reduce-out cookies take on a whole new existence with those imaginative cookies made with a easy and delicious vanilla sugar cookie dough.

Don’t want to spend hours outlining, flooding, and decorating cookies with royal icing to get a pretty embellished effect? You need my smooth cutout cookies! It’s so easy to color a portion of the dough with gel meals colouring and then play jigsaw with a Christmas tree cutter.

These cookies are a first rate testomony to what the thoughts can dream up when it’s now not in any other case occupied. I had the concept for them (in addition to some impending cupcakes!) even as at an uneventful just not my sort of track gig with Lee. i was considering new and thrilling christmas baking ideas which might be matters I haven’t completed before. In equity, Lee received my heart throughout an indie/alternative (now admitted) phase, after which moved onto liking some much more shouty song, whilst I still like indie/opportunity/folks and a piece of pop!
