Today we are putting seven frosting recipes to the test to find out which frosting tastes the best and how they stand up in the heat outside in an Aussie summer. These cookies will last in an airtight container at room temperature for up to a week, in the fridge for up to 2 weeks, or in the freezer (unfrosted) for 3 months.The best frosting recipes give that moist mouthfeel, enhanced flavour and burst of indulgence with every bite. These sugar cookies are topped with a homemade cream cheese frosting and your choice of toppings - here are some ideas! Make sure the cookies are completely cooled before adding the frosting! If your frosting is melting after frosting the cookies, chances are you tried to frost the cookies too soon after baking. If it’s too thin, simply whisk in more powdered sugar. If your frosting is runny before frosting the cookies, you under-measured your powdered sugar or over-measured your milk/cream. Let it set completely and you’re good to go! Be sure to place wax or parchment paper between the layers, this will help keep the frosting on the cookie and off the bottom of another! Yes! Since this frosting firms up pretty well, you should be able to stack them without it smooshing all over the place. Can you stack sugar cookies with cream cheese frosting? Technically frosting never gets super firm. Once your cookies are completely cooled, frost and enjoy!.Mix in powdered sugar and salt, then milk and vanilla. While your cookies are cooling, make your cream cheese frosting! Place cream cheese in a bowl and beat until fluffy.Cut the dough into whatever shape you like then bake on a baking sheet lined with a silicone mat.Form a ball with all of the dough then use a rolling pin to roll it out on a clean, lightly floured surface.Mix in flour, baking powder and salt until fully combined then cover with saran wrap and chill for 1 hour in the fridge.Use a stand-mixer or hand-mixer to cream together butter and sugar then add in egg, milk, vanilla, and almond extract.This recipe is so easy to make and so delicious! Cream Cheese, Powdered Sugar, Salt, Milk, and Vanilla Extract – make up a thick, sweet, and delicious cream cheese frosting.ĭon’t skip the cream cheese frosting! Some recipes call for royal icing, but I find that much harder to work with, overly sweet, and kind of bland! The cream cheese frosting adds the PERFECT amount of flavor and tang to balance out the sweet cookie.Salt – cuts the sweetness and enhances other flavors.Baking powder lightens the cookies to keep them fluffy. All-Purpose Flour – gives the cookies structure.Almond Extract – my secret ingredient to add flavor and sweetness! I find sugar cookies without almond extract to be very bland.Milk – adds a little extra moisture for perfectly chewy cookies.Egg – helps bind the ingredients together, allowing the cookies to hold their shape.Granulated Sugar – sweetens the cookies.Unsalted Butter – adds a rich, warm, buttery flavor.These sugar cookies are crispy, yet soft and topped with a tangy cream cheese frosting! My version is still delicious though…and that’s what matters, right? Ingredients I guess frosting isn’t my forte while my mom is a frosting master. If I’m really being honest, hers ALWAYS look better than mine.
I LOVE her version, but who would I be if I didn’t try to play with it a little bit?
These cut out sugar cookies with cream cheese frosting recipe is a riff of the sugar cookies my mom made when I was growing up.
