The baking mania continues! In the last week I tried two new sugar cookie recipes, but I think I like the one I have been using much better. The first had lemon zest and the second had sour cream. They both had good flavor, but nothing exciting. I don't like a bland sugar cookie. They had good structure for decorating. The only thing is, I was going to make royal icing and decorate both batches at once, but I tried one of the sour cream cookies yesterday and wasn't sure if I even liked it. So, I am not decorating those. I will make some more cookies and decorate them with a winter theme rather than Christmas.
I did make a double batch of the lemon zest sugar cookies and Little C (that will be my blog name for our 7 year old daughter) cut out and decorated half of them. I did not think it was possible to use an entire 6 pack of sprinkles on one batch, but she came very close! We had a lot of fun and she was very proud of her cookies!
Yesterday I made Oatmeal Cookies - part of the batch was cinnamon raisin for Santa, and the rest of the cookies were chocolate chip. Santa's plate was clean this morning, so I assume he loved the cookies we made for him!
