These cookies are sweet and mild and perfect for the young palate or those who don't enjoy the snap of more traditional gingerbread cookies. If you're looking for that snap but still want to make these cookies, I suggest using this recipe for your gingerbread.
These are a great cookie to involve your kids in making because there is lots of rolling, twisting and playing. These are very hands on cookies so gather your little ones and have fun!
Ingredients
- 1 (16 1/2 oz) package of refrigerated sugar cookie dough
- 1 (16 1/2 oz) package of refrigerated gingerbread cookie dough
- 4 Tbsp flour, divided
- Pre-heat oven to 375 F.
- In a medium bowl combine 2 Tbsp. flour with the sugar cookie dough and blend together with your hands
- In another medium bowl combine 2 Tbsp. flour with the gingerbread cookie dough and blend together with your hands
- Shape 1 inch balls from each bowl of dough.
- Roll 1 sugar cookie and 1 gingerbread ball into a 4-inch rope.
- Lay them side by side and twist them together, then roll that out into an 8-inch rope
- Cut that into 6 to 8 equal size rectangle cookies
- place on the cookie sheet and cook for about 7 minutes, or until the edges are set.
- Let cool on a wire rack and devour.
With these cookies, as with all cooking with kids it isn't about a perfect product, it's about the memories, the experience and the time spent together.
So get cooking and Happy Holiday Memories!
