Easy Flower Cookies
How to make easy flower cookies in ten minutes or less.

Go to the store and grab some plain cookies or dough and some frosting. It’s Christmas Eve, and you have 47 presents to wrap. The in-laws are coming for dinner, and you have to go to the post office to buy three more stamps. You still want to make cookies. I’ve got you covered (at least on the cookie part).

Easy Cookie Recipes

Easy Flower Cookies
Ingredients
- 12 sugar cookies
- 1/2 cup buttercream frosting
- 1 teaspoon candy sprinkles
Instructions
- PIPE dots of buttercream around the edge of a circle cookie.
- DRAG the frosting dots to the center of the cookie using the tip of a spoon. Use the tip of a spoon to drag the dots toward the center. REPEAT until you reach the middle.
- PLACE white nonpareils in the center.
You can use this technique on any cookie you like. I even used it on plain store-bought cookies here. You can find my favorite Best Sugar Cookie recipe and my Best Christmas Cookie Frosting.
I hope you find a way to bring somebody joy today. When in doubt, add sprinkles. Sprinkles make everyone smile. We’re finishing up a whole month of cookies every day. I hope you enjoyed the I’ll Bring the Cookies Event as much as I did!

Have you seen this Be a Good Cookie Spatula from OXO hanging around lately? Last year, the OXO “Good Cookie” Spatula helped raise over $250,000 for pediatric cancer research as part of their partnership with Cookies for Kids’ Cancer, a nonprofit organization dedicated to raising funds for pediatric cancer research. It was started by two OXO employees, Gretchen and Larry Witt, who lost their little boy, Liam, to pediatric cancer. It’s not too late to order a Good Cookie Spatula and support a great cause; plus, every time you look at it, you can’t help but smile!
