I’m so excited for all of the Easter inspiration coming out right now so I couldn’t wait to share my Easter Basket Stuffer wish list for 2022. This basket features some of my all time favorite shops and makers and I’m super excited to be supporting these small shops.
Easter Sugar Cookies
Today we’re getting into the Easter Spirit with these super fun sugar cookies. I snagged these adorable cookie cutters from one of my favorite Etsy shops Holly Fox Design — if you want some cookie inspiration, you have to follow her on instagram! We started by making the cookie dough (straight out of the bag because who has time for cookies from scratch?). We mixed it up and rolled it out. We didn’t have a rolling pin, so we flattened it out by hand — which turned out to be a bit of a mistake because the first batch was too thick. So we rolled it out a bit thinner and popped them in the oven.
Then we started making the royal icing. We mixed a large batch of white, split it into bowls, and mixed up these gorgeous pastel colors. Some of the textures were a little bit off, but that’s okay, we had fun decorating them anyway. And Sofie kept running around saying “cookie, cookie, cookie!”. It was so much fun decorating these and laying them out to make the house festive for Easter! Check out the photos below of Sofie in her cutest little Easter outfit from Eighth Day Creations.
