Easter Chick Sugar Cookies
How cute are these little yellow Easter Chick Sugar Cookies?! They’ll be a hit with young and old alike! And they’re quick to make since they start out with refrigerated cookie dough. But shhhh! Don’t give away your shortcut!
The ingredient list for these is short since you start put with the cookie dough already made.
Cut out your cookies as close together as possible to get as many cookies as possible.
Keep an eye on the cookies when they’re in the oven. You don’t want to brown anything but the edges.
You can make the frosting as light or dark as you want by adding more or less yellow food coloring.
