These cookies turned out delicious. I used honey instead of corn syrup with no ill effects. Quick tip-make sure you make them nice and long extra pointy when you shape them and keep them cold. =)
I made these on a whim for my sister for Christmas since she really wants a hedgehog. They turned out super cute but the cookie itself is not good. I found it bland and tasted like I bit into a bunch of flour. I will maybe use another sugar cookie recipe as a base next time if I make these again. I did add a bit of milk as another reviewer mentioned because the dough was too dry. I also used mini chocolate chips for the eyes and nose so I wouldn't have to mess with a piping bag. I just put them in a little bit after the cookies came out of the oven. Cute cookies just not something I would like to actually eat. Since I put effort into these I will still give them to my sister...but I suspect she will end up throwing them out after she tastes one.:(
Definitely very cute and delicious! My one complaint would be that decorating them is very time consuming and the eyes and nose are very hard to get right. Also the cookie dough is SUPER dry so I just added milk until it wasn't so crumbly and was more of a batter and not some damp crumbs. They turned out great though. I would just recommend adding some milk!
I made these with my 13-yo daughter and she brought them into school. The kids loved them the only complaint was there were none left for me! Gotta make a double-batch for sure!
So cute and so adorable! Kids love these.
loved making these little guys! we used veggie oil in with the chocolate chips and the Chocolate ended up smoother.
I would likely make it again i would mention that the dough can seem very bulky/thick once it is shaped and baked and would try to skim down the cookie size without compromising the shape. A bit of nutmeg or orange zest as I tried also provided some relief for a very plain and somewhat dry cookie.
We made this recipe for Halloween but we shaped the dough into tiny mice. I always make homemade treats for the kids. Every year I make Carmel Popcorn Balls cupcakes and then I make something different. This last Halloween we made the mice. The kids LOVED them and went NUTS! I highly recommend this recipe.??
I made these today the cookie is delicious. I think I found my favorite sugar cookie recipe. I used butter instead of shortening and honey instead of corn syrup. They can out just fine I also halved the recipe. The only "con" was that the cookies spread a little but I reshaped them before they cooled. They look great! I think next time I will add a touch of lemon zest to give it a bit of a zing. I highly recommend these cookies they're so cute!
