next up for the weekend of baking was to make some soft sugar cookies to make sandwiches out of using some rainbow chip frosting. the recipe said it makes 4.5 dozen but i only got 3.5 dozen out of it. my cookies aren't huge, by any means, but maybe they're bigger than they're supposed to be? i over-baked the first batch by just a smidge. they're not burnt, or really even brown, but i wanted these to be soft and a little gooey. the rest of them turned out just how i wanted them to. this recipe is very easy to make and pretty tasty but i wouldn't say it's the best sugar cookie i've ever had. one of the comments on allrecipes.com said that they taste like lofthouse cookies. that is false. anyway, on with the show...
i decided to roll a dozen in blue sanding sugar and not make sandwiches out of them in case anyone wants just a sugar cookie.
i just realized that this picture is nearly identical to the one above, just with plain cookies instead of blue ones. i probably couldn't do that again if i tried!
i scooped a small spoon full of frosting onto a cookie, then smashed another cookie on top. pretty simple, obviously. and here they are in a white basket lined with green and white gingham fabric. i'm so festive!
come see this post and many others at sweets for a saturday!
