A simple to make soft and chewy sugar cookie that is bright and cheery for a fun Spring, Easter, or birthday treat!
Chewy Sugar Cookies
The sanding sugar is so bright and beautiful on these Spring Blossom Cookies that it caught the attention of my niece right away! They were sitting on my counter and she just had to take some home with her. Especially the pink ones!
These cookies taste absolutely amazing. It is impossible to stop at one! They are so soft and so chewy, everything a sugar cookie should be!
What really gets me excited about these are the Birthday Cake Hersey Kisses! I saw them at Target and I just had to get a bag. I didn’t know what I was going to do with them until my son assumed I was going to use them to make the same cookies I make at Christmas time – Peanut Butter Blossoms. It was a genius idea!
These are such happy cookies and would be perfect to make for Spring time, Easter, or a birthday party!
