My boys like to help make cookies, but they aren’t too keen on the decorating sugar cookies…which is perfectly fine with me, because I’m not too keen on the mess clean up after decorating sugar cookies. So instead of cookie cutting, frosting, sprinkling; we like to make candy cane sugar cookies. It still allows them to be involved, but it isn’t nearly as messy. Between you and me, I think they prefer the candy cane cookies because rolling out and shaping the dough is quite a bit like playing with playdoh. These cookies can easily be decorated as well with sprinkling of powdered sugar or addition of crushed candy canes…
