A friend of mine received this recipe and a jar containing all of the dry ingredients as a gift, and we made it together. It was a great gift - delicious and easy to make with the mix. So if you want to use this as a mix, just put all of the ingredients except for the butter and egg in layers in a jar and give it with the recipe. Otherwise, you can just enjoy them at home.

DUTCH SAND COOKIES



Dutch Sand Cookies image

Every year before Christmas, my mom and I bake a tin of cookies for each of her sibling's families, our family friends, etc. We use my great-great grandmother's recipes; before she died, she asked my mother to carry on her Christmas cookie-baking tradition. This is one of the cookies we make every year, and one of my favorites. It requires very few ingredients which almost everyone keeps on hand. They turn out crispy and sort of a mix between a shortbread and spritz. Butter may be used instead of margarine. Cook time does not include the time these cookies need to chill. Servings and Yield are a guess; both depend on how you cut them.

Tips:

  • Use high-quality ingredients: The better the ingredients, the better the cookies will taste. Use real butter, sugar, and vanilla extract.
  • Chill the dough: Chilling the dough helps the cookies hold their shape and prevents them from spreading too much.
  • Don't overmix the dough: Overmixing the dough will make the cookies tough. Mix just until the ingredients are combined.
  • Bake the cookies at the right temperature: The ideal temperature for baking sand art cookies is 350 degrees Fahrenheit.
  • Let the cookies cool completely: Before decorating the cookies, let them cool completely on a wire rack. This will help prevent the icing from melting.
  • Be creative with your decorations: You can use a variety of sprinkles, colored sugar, and edible glitter to decorate the cookies. You can also use stencils or cookie cutters to create different shapes.

Conclusion:

Sand art cookies are a fun and easy treat to make for any occasion. They are perfect for birthday parties, holiday gatherings, or just a special snack. With a little creativity, you can make sand art cookies that are both beautiful and delicious.
