Tips:

  • Chill the dough before baking: This will help the cookies hold their shape and prevent them from spreading too much.
  • Use a cookie scoop to portion the dough: This will help ensure that all of the cookies are the same size and shape.
  • Bake the cookies until the edges are just starting to brown: Overbaking will make the cookies dry and crumbly.
  • Let the cookies cool completely before frosting them: This will help the frosting set properly.
  • Use a variety of sprinkles to decorate the cookies: This will add a festive touch and make them even more appealing.
