Cookie Decorating
Kids Cooking Party

Another option for the party is to make the dough ahead of time and just have the cooking party do the rolling out the dough and decorating.

  • Cookie Decorating Recipe

    decorated cookies
    We are going to follow the recipes from the following page- cookie recipes. You can choose one of the three cut out cookie recipes on this page- basic sugar cookie dough, simple sugar cookie recipe, or brown sugar and spice cut out cookies. Any of these recipes will make a great dough for the cookie decorating kids cooking party.

    When preparing the recipe allow kids to take turns adding and stirring ingredients in a large mixing bowl so everyone gets a turn. You should be able to use the dough without chilling it for several hours. When dough is complete give each child a portion of the dough and allow them to roll out the dough on a floured surface. Cut out cookies with cookie cutter and place on cookie sheet. Have an adult bake and allow cookies to cool. While you are waiting for cookies to cook and cool, prepare another recipe you have planned, decorate aprons, chef hats or play cooking games.

    Set table with frosting, table knives and sprinkles. Allow kids to decorate and place on a paper plate or shallow box to take home.
