Cream Cheese Sugar Cookies

Sugar cookies are one of my most favorite sweet treats.  I love the thinner, crispier ones and the soft pillowy (lofthouse) style ones and I love the frosted version.  Sugar cookies are the perfect treat for any occasion…these are a must make.

Get Creative 

I beauty of these cookies is you can use whatever sprinkles you want or change the color of the icing to anything you want.  You really can be as creative you want.  

For this go around I decided to use up all the left over sprinkles I had laying around.  I have to be honest I loved the variety…a little something for everyone.

Ohhhh the icing!

For these Sugar Cookies I used a traditional Cream Cheese icing.  I love the bit if tang the frosting adds.  If you are not a cream cheese icing fan you can use your favorite buttercream…or even your favorite canned frosting.

I went with mainly white frosting but for the kids I divided the frosting up and used gel food coloring for deep colors that I knew they would love.  Look how great their creations came out!

Their smiles make my day

Anytime I can put a smile on their face it makes my day.

 

Plain is ok too

My mom is not a fan of any icing, even on cake really, so I made a few without icing for her.  She said they were one of her most favorite cookies EVER!

It is Sugar Cookie time!
