Best 6 Hugs And Kisses Sugar Cookies Recipes

HUGS AND KISSES COOKIES XOXO

Steps:

• Preheat oven to 350 degrees and have 3 cookie sheets ready, lined with parchment paper; set aside. In a large mixing bowl, add the whole tube of the cookie dough along with the flour, powdered sugar, cinnamon and the extract. Mix well with clean hands or a wooden spoon. When all mixed, chill dough in fridge for about 10 minutes. Remove from fridge and roll up into 48 little balls of dough; about a teaspoon or so each. Place on cookie sheets. Bake about 9-10 minutes on the middle rack. After 5 minutes, turn the pan around for even baking. Remember, we always bake one cookie sheet at a time. Cookies will be done when they are puffed up, set in the center, and the bottom is light brown. Transfer cookie sheet to cooling rack and gently press a mini kiss in the center of each cookie. Cool for about 3-5 minutes. After that, you can slide the parchment paper off the cookie sheet onto the cooling rack and let the cookies firm and set. Repeat steps 5 through 7 until all of the cookies are done. Sprinkle the cinnamon sugar lightly over each cookie. Enjoy!

HUGS AND KISSES SUGAR COOKIES

Steps:

Transfer dough on parchment to freezer, and chill 15 minutes.
• Using a 2- to 3-inch X- or O-shaped cookie cutter, quickly cut out shapes from dough. (If dough begins to soften, return to freezer for 3 to 5 minutes.) Reroll scraps once and cut out more shapes.
• Transfer shapes to parchment-lined baking sheets, spacing them 2 inches apart. Freeze 15 minutes. Sprinkle shapes with sanding sugar. Bake until edges are just golden, 15 to 18 minutes. Let cool completely on sheets on wire racks.
