Directions

Step 1

Preheat your oven to 350°F (175°C) and line two baking sheets with parchment paper.

Step 7

Using cookie cutters, cut the dough into desired shapes and place them onto the prepared baking sheets.

Bake the cookies in the preheated oven for about 10-12 minutes or until the edges are golden brown.
