Baking cookies with kids can be a delightful experience, but it can also be messy and overwhelming. Consider these nine sugar cookie-baking and decorating hacks to make the process smoother and more enjoyable. Use parchment paper to roll out dough to avoid dry and tough cookies. Dip cookie cutters in flour to prevent sticking. Put icing in squeeze bottles for easier decorating, and give each child a paper plate to contain messes. Limit the color options to two or three to save time and reduce overwhelm. Embrace imperfections as “happy accidents” rather than getting frustrated. Create a fun environment with festive music and jokes. Set timers to help kids keep track of drying times between icing colors. Lastly, try the dip method for decorating by letting kids dip their cookies directly into icing bowls for a hands-on experience. These hacks can help you create happy holiday memories while making delicious treats with your kids.
