Sugar Cookies From Scratch: Bakery Style Confetti Cookies
If you love cookies like I do, you’re going to love this recipe. Sugar cookies from scratch are the way to go, and these are bakery style! My husband spent most of Sunday baking up cookies (Corn Flakes Marshmallow and Toffee Chocolate Chip) and I think we should add this recipe to the mix. These cookies are delicious. You can have them ready pretty quick, and all you do is drop them on the cookie sheet. Then, wait for them to bake into soft chewy little pillows of luscious cookies. You’ll definitely want to keep this recipe handy, so you can make them when you just need cookies! And when you’re done with these, here’s another fun sugar cookies recipe!
