Frosting Round Sugar Cookies

1. Decide whether you want your cookies to include candy or sprinkles. Both candy and sprinkles are a quick and easy way to decorate round sugar cookies. This is also a great option if you have children who are helping to decorate the cookies.

2. Fill your cake decorating bags with frosting and use them to make fun designs on the cookies. Great ideas for everyday sugar cookies include sports themes like basketballs or baseballs, smiley faces, ladybugs and rainbows.

3. If you are decorating near a holiday, use common holiday decorations for inspiration. If it is Halloween, make a spider's web or a pumpkin. The holiday season is also a great time to decorate wreaths or ornaments on your cookies.

Tips & Warnings

• If you have children, let them decorate their own sugar cookies while you spend time on more intricate designs for parties, gifts or bake sales.
