  8. Now get ready with your cookie cutters and sugar sprinklers.I used half of this dough for sugar cookies.Then on a butter paper keep the dough and place another butter paper on it so that the dough is like a sandwich between the 2 butter papers.Roll out the dough to 1/4 inch thickness.

  9. Then cut using your favourite shaped cookie cutters. Collect the scraps, roll again until you finish the entire dough.If you feel sticky then slightly flour the cookie cutters before using it.Meanwhile preheat the oven at 180 deg C for 10 mins.Line butter paper on the cookie tray and transfer the shaped cookies to the butter paper – I chilled the cookies at this stage for 10 mins while the oven was preheating.

  10. Sprinkle the colored sugar over the cookies.Once the oven is preheated,bake the cookies at the same temperature for 10-12 mins or until the edges start turning golden brown.Cool down completely on a wire rack.The cookies may look soft, once cooled down it becomes crisp.

My Notes:

  • Other Variations : Dip the cookies in melted chocolate, add chopped nuts to the dough or choco chips.Be creative and add it according to your liking.
  • I used chilled butter, used electric handmixer so it was easy to beat.But if you are using handwhisk use room temperature butter so that its easy to whisk.
  • Do not be tempted to bake more, the cookies will become hard.Just take out when it starts to turn golden at the edges,thats the right time to  take out.
  • I used the sugar sprinklers which hubby bought from US.You can use homemade sugar sprinklers too.
  • Chilling the dough is must else the cookies may spread out and will not hold shape while cutting too.
