Sugar cookies just make me happy! I love making them for all seasons. Flower-shaped cookies for spring, pumpkin-shaped cookies in the fall, snowmen at Christmas, and heart-shaped cookies for Valentine’s Day! They are everyone’s favorite cookies to make and eat at our house! I have so many memories of making sugar cookies with my grandparents and parents and now I love making them with my kids. Mixing the dough, rolling it out on the counter, and cutting out different shapes. Then the best part- decorating! Possibilities seem endless when it comes to different colors of homemade frosting and sprinkles of all shapes and sizes. I am always on the lookout for the best sugar cookie recipe.
