FAQ
Q: Why do I need to chill the dough?
A: Chilling the dough helps to solidify the butter, which results in cookies that hold their shape better during baking. It also makes the dough easier to roll out.
Q: Can I freeze the sugar cookies?
A: Yes! You can freeze the dough or the baked cookies. To freeze the dough, wrap it tightly in plastic wrap and place it in a ziplock bag. To freeze baked cookies, layer them with parchment paper in an airtight container.
Q: How can I decorate my sugar cookies?
A: You can use royal icing, melted chocolate, sprinkles, or edible glitter to decorate your sugar cookies. Royal icing works well for intricate designs, while sprinkles are perfect for a quick, festive touch.
