These cookies are my kids’ favorites! At home, we gobble them up in no time! It is a great idea to always have an air-tight container filled with these irresistible cookies. You can use different cookie cutter shapes: round, starts, hearts!
This dough is very easy to make and never fails. It is also the perfect recipe to make together with our kids, who will also love decorating them!
