We haven’t done an episode for awhile, and Doug and the girls love cutout cookies and it’s two weeks until Christmas so what the hell!
What the hell indeed. Ok – first, we cheated and used Pillsbury sugar cookie dough premade because, come on, the girls have an attention span of four minutes and Doug’s is only about 5 minutes. Secondly, a cheat that my Mom and I use because making cutouts and icing them SUCK, is you take store-bought vanilla icing, take off the foil and nuke it in the container for 30 second intervals, generally 3 times, and then just pour over the cookies. You can color the icing as well.
Then garnish with sprinkles. Or if you’re a Berkeley girl under the age of 5, you douse the cookies with sprinkles, resulting in a sugar rush of epic proportions.
Oops. Merry Christmas!
