Tips:

  • Use high-quality ingredients: Fresh butter, eggs, and flour will make a big difference in the final product.
  • Chill your dough before baking: This will help the cookies hold their shape and prevent them from spreading too much.
  • Bake the cookies until they are just set: You don't want to overbake them, or they will become dry and crumbly.
  • Let the cookies cool completely before filling them: This will help prevent the filling from seeping out.
  • Use a variety of fillings: You can use anything from classic buttercream to chocolate ganache or even ice cream.
  • Decorate the cookies as desired: You can use sprinkles, chocolate chips, or even edible glitter to make your cookies look festive.

Conclusion:
