Easter Egg Cookies Recipe

Easter activities at home with the entire family are even more fun when sweet treats are involved. Are you in need of fun Easter activities to keep kids busy as the anticipation of Easter rises? We collaborated with artistic baking extraordinaire, SweetAmbs on developing this almost too-pretty to eat Easter egg sugar cookie recipe!

One of the best parts about this recipe is that the ingredients for both the cookies & icing are ones that many of us already have sitting in our kitchens and pantries, so no need to worry about trekking to the store to buy ingredients.

If you have kids that are eager to help with baking and decorating and want to keep them busy as the cookies are baking and cooling off before the decorating fun begins, then have them color these Savor Easter Egg Coloring Sheets.
