Cut Out Cookies

By January 22, 2018

These easy peasy cookies have been shared with us by Robyn from Mrs D Plus 3. These biscuits are not only easy but also tasty. Cutting them and then decorating is the perfect activity for little kids who want to help in the kitchen. They are also the perfect option for a 'cookie decorating' station at a kids birthday party... part food, part activity. It's a star performer!
