Payton and I made Sugar cookies about a week and a half ago. I brought the coffee table that she uses for puzzles and coloring over so she could help me cut out the cookies. She helped me roll out the dough and press the cookie cutters in the dough- she even did a few herself. Most of the time she tried to scrape the cookie cutters instead of press and she ended up just sticking blobs of dough on the cookie sheets. The second half I let her put sprinkles on them. She had fun shaking the sprinkles and smooshing them one to one cookie. She did a great job and it was fun to carry on the tradition of baking cookies like I did with my mom.
Yesterday we baked Chocolate pixies one of my favorites. We cleaned off her table again and brought it in the kitchen. I put the cookie dough, cookie sheet and powdered sugar and we were set. I rolled the dough into balls and Payton rolled or shook the dough in the powdered sugar and Grandma Tucker put the cookies in the oven. It was fun baking with Payton and my mom - Payton does a great job helping and even putting the dough on the cookie sheets. She loves to look in the oven to see if the are ready. She had a great time making cookies and even eating a little cookie dough!
