Notes

Chef Jenn’s Tips

  • Use a large cookie scoop for even sizes and bakery-style thickness.
  • Keep frosting ingredients slightly chilled for swirls that hold their shape.
  • For more depth of flavor, add a splash of almond extract or swap in butter-vanilla flavoring.
  • Freeze unfrosted cookies in an airtight container for up to 2 months; frost after thawing.
