The Perfect Christmas Cookie Cutter Dough Recipe
Gather Your Ingredients
To make the perfect Christmas cookie cutter dough, you'll need flour, sugar, butter, eggs, and vanilla extract. You can also add spices like cinnamon, nutmeg, or ginger to give your cookies a festive flavor. Make sure to have all your ingredients measured and ready to go before you start mixing.
Mixing and Rolling
In a large mixing bowl, cream together the butter and sugar until light and fluffy. Then, add in the eggs and vanilla extract and mix until well combined. In a separate bowl, combine the flour and spices. Slowly add the dry ingredients to the wet mixture and mix until a dough forms.
Once your dough is formed, divide it into two equal parts. Place one half on a floured surface and roll it out to your desired thickness. Use your favorite Christmas cookie cutters to cut out your desired shapes. Place the cut out cookies on a baking sheet lined with parchment paper. Repeat this process with the second half of the dough.
Baking and Decorating
Preheat your oven to 375 degrees Fahrenheit. Bake the cookies for 8-10 minutes, or until the edges are lightly golden brown. Let the cookies cool on the baking sheet for a few minutes before transferring them to a wire rack to cool completely.
Once your cookies are cooled, it's time to decorate them with frosting, sprinkles, and other festive toppings. Get creative and have fun with it! You can also use the cookie cutter dough to make fun and delicious homemade ornaments for your Christmas tree.
Store or Share
If you're not planning on serving your cookies right away, you can store them in an airtight container for up to a week. You can also freeze the dough for later use. And don't forget to share your delicious Christmas cookies with friends and family to spread some holiday cheer.
Now that you have the perfect Christmas cookie cutter dough recipe, it's time to get baking! Enjoy making and decorating these festive treats with your loved ones. Happy Holidays!
