I have the perfect thick sugar cookie recipe inspired by Frozen the Movie and Frozen 2 that we are anxiously anticipating!! These soft & chewy sugar cookies are perfect to be rolled out and cut into shapes, then topped with a thick layer of frosting and frozen sprinkles.
Frozen Soft & Chewy Sugar Cookies
These are the ultimate in sugar cookies and can be made for a variety of occasions like birthday parties, showers and school bake sales. Simply tint the frosting blue for Frozen and top with a blend of white and light blue sprinkles and pieces.
