I often think of sugar cookies as chocolate chips cookies without chocolate chips, but that is far from the truth. Most sugar cookie recipes only use white granulated sugar and more of it!
Sure, they are basic; but, in the best possible way!
What can really make or break a sugar cookie is the accoutrements. Add some sprinkles, icing, cinnamon, or a combination! Colorful sprinkles will really add a pop of color to the light colored cookie and icing. And this sugar cookie skillet is loaded with sprinkles!
First of all, sharing one giant cookie skillet is much more fun than little individual cookies! Second, the size of the skillet results in a softer and chewier texture. It reminds me of those cookie cakes that were very popular in 90's malls. Such a simple concept, but everyone wanted to have one at their next birthday party!
This sugar cookie skillet uses simple ingredients you already have on hand. Plus, there's no gluten and no eggs. So, feel free to sample a bit of the dough. Not like you would have done that anyway...
Oh, and the finished product tastes a lot like sugar cookie dough, except it's baked with sprinkles and the BEST vanilla frosting! A moist and chewy center, with a slightly crisp edge. For a crispier edge, bake for a few extra minutes.
Basic. Simple. Sweet. Classic. Amazing!
No time?!? No problem! Simply use store-bought cookie dough! Decorate with some homemade icing and sprinkles...no one will know. (I won't tell)
In a medium bowl, beat the butter until smooth. Then, beat in the milk/cream and powdered sugar. Spoon into a piping bag with a star tip.
Sprinkles should be added prior to baking. Otherwise, the sprinkles will not become one with the cookie and will simply roll away. You can even press them into the dough before baking. I also recommend topping frosting with a few extra sprinkles!
For a soft and chewy treat that is gluten free, egg free, dairy free, and vegan- this gluten free & vegan sugar cookie skillet will hit the sweet spot!
