Sugar Cookies with Extra Flour

Every year as a Christmas tradition we ice sugar cookies as a family. It always turns into a contest between the kids and is something we look forward to every year. Since Peyton LOVES to bake, my mom thought that it would be fun to include Peyton in the baking process and invited her over and she sure had fun!

Here they are at the start...notice the progression of messiness!

She got the hang of rolling pretty quickly and would follow Granny's instructions and did a great job! Her favorite part however was the flour and dumping it all over the place.And every helper needs to enjoy her work at the end and she thought they were delicious and would ask for more cookies. She even told me to put them "in my mouth"! She had a blast and was such a mess! Good Christmas memories!

Now we get to decorate on Monday night and more fun will be had I am sure....and more messes!
