Tips Making Memorial Day Cookie Recipes
- Use Vibrant Colors – Gel food coloring works best for bold red, white, and blue dough or frosting without affecting texture.
- Chill Your Dough – For cut-out or rolled cookies, chilling prevents spreading and keeps shapes intact.
- Get Creative with Decorations – Sprinkles, colored sugar, and white chocolate drizzle add extra festive flair.
- Try No-Bake Options – If it’s too hot to turn on the oven, make no-bake cookies or chocolate-dipped treats.
- Use Star Cookie Cutters – Shape sugar cookies into stars for a patriotic touch, then decorate with red, white, and blue icing.
