Easy Frozen Cookie Dough Cookies
Bake Cookies Effortlessly with Frozen Dough! ♡
With the fine dust being so severe these days, we decided to forgo going out and spent a weekend at home. To beat the boredom, my child and I baked cookies together. ♡ This recipe is perfect for a fun, simple baking session at home!
Ingredients- Frozen cookie dough (various colors)
- Cookie cutters (animal shapes or any preferred shapes)
Cooking Instructions
Step 1
For this activity, I often use a ‘Toy Cookie Making Package’. This package comes with pre-portioned dough in six different natural colors, derived from ingredients like spinach, carrots, cocoa, and pumpkin, making the preparation incredibly easy and fun for kids.
Step 2
Aren’t the colors lovely? A great feature of these cookies is that when you eat them, you can subtly taste the flavor and aroma of each natural ingredient. They aren’t overly sweet, making them enjoyable for both children and adults.
Step 3
Gently roll out the cookie dough using a rolling pin to an even thickness of about 3mm. It’s important to roll it out smoothly so it doesn’t tear. Uniform thickness ensures the cookies bake evenly.
Step 4
Now, it’s time to use your cookie cutters to press firmly and create shapes. Even little hands can easily press out the shapes, making this a fantastic cooking activity to do with children.
Step 5
Here’s a cute turtle-shaped cookie! Choosing animals your child likes or using a variety of cutters will make the cookie-making even more exciting.
Step 6
Next, we’re using the cocoa-colored dough and pressing a Brachiosaurus cutter firmly into it. If your child loves dinosaurs, they’ll be thrilled!
Step 7
Then, we’re using the tomato-colored dough to press out elephant shapes. Feel free to mix and match colors and shapes that your child loves to create unique cookies.
Step 8
Place the cut-out cookie dough shapes onto a baking sheet, leaving some space between them. To add an extra touch of fun, you can use a toothpick to draw eyes onto the cookies, making them even more adorable.
Step 9
With the eyes added, don’t they look almost too cute to eat?
Step 10
My child’s sense of design is even better than mine! By combining different colored doughs, they created this wonderfully colorful turtle cookie. It’s amazing to see their creativity blossom.
Step 11
Bake in a preheated oven at 165°C (325°F) for about 10 minutes. It’s a good idea to rotate the baking sheet halfway through to ensure even browning and prevent burning. If you don’t have an oven, you can also bake them on low heat in a frying pan.
Step 12
This dough is wonderfully versatile, much like modeling clay, allowing for endless creative shapes. This is a cute lion cookie that my child made themselves.
Step 13
Oh no! This is the fire truck cookie, which my child loved so much they took a bite out of it! Thankfully, they enjoyed it so much.
Step 14
Making cookies with frozen dough is wonderfully simple, results in delicious treats, and offers a fantastic opportunity for both culinary and artistic activities with your child. It’s a great way to create special memories together!
