Need a super simple treat for a school Easter party or family celebration? Refrigerated sugar cookie dough and Easter candies come together for a sweet treat that doesn't take much time yet looks great on your cookie tray!
What you need:
What you need:
- Prepared sugar cookie dough (Make it easy on yourself and grab a tube from the refrigerator section at the store!)
- Icing colored with green food coloring
- "Candy Eggs" (Suggestions include "Speckled Eggs" M&Ms, Cadbury Mini Eggs, Jelly Beans, etc.)
What you do:
- Grease a mini muffin pan (or spray with Pam or similar product).
- Roll cookie dough into small balls (a heaping tablespoon works great!) and place one ball into each "muffin" space.
- Bake at 350 degrees for about 10 minutes or until cookies appear done.
- As soon as you remove from oven, use the end of a utensil that is rounded to gently press in an indentation on each cookie, making a "nest."
- Wait a few minutes and then remove from pan before they cool completely. If your cookies want to stick (which they may!), gently slide a butter knife around the edges of each nest and lift it out carefully. Allow to cool completely.
- Once cooled, using a piping bag (or sandwich bag with end cut off) and squeeze a little icing into each nest to look like grass.
- Add the candy eggs and your nests are ready to share!
