Cutout Cookie Coffee Toppers

December 17, 2014

 

 
 
 
 
 
Thank you to Nestle Tollhouse for sponsoring this discussion.
 
Christmas Cutouts are a long-time family tradition that I look forward to every year.  We spend the whole day baking, eating too much cookie dough, and making memories that last a life time.  This year I wanted to do a spin on our traditional cutouts, but was stumped until I saw these Nestle Tollhouse Rolled and Ready Cookie Dough sheets.  I thought- “What about putting the cutouts on our coffee and hot chocolate mugs?”  Loving the idea, I grabbed some meltable chocolate and fun sprinkles and ran home.  
 
When I got home I preheated the oven to 350 and took out my baking sheet.  The best thing about the Nestle Tollhouse Rolled and Ready?  They’re already floured.  So all I had to do was lay out the cookie sheet and go to town with my cookie cutter.  It took me five minutes tops.  Talk about a time-saver.
The cookies only needed to bake about 10 minutes to be golden brown and perfect.  I cut a rectangular shape in the bottom of each so that they could fit on the coffee mugs, then placed them in the fridge.
While the cookies were cooling, I melted down chocolate and placed it in a frosting bag.  Then, as soon as the cookies were room temp, I got down to decorating.  
These were a fast and fun way to add Christmas cheer.  Try them out and let me know what you think!
Tip: If you cut your rectangles too big: fill them in with the melted chocolate, place on the coffee mug, and hold for 15 seconds.  I promise they’ll stay put 😉

Also, make sure to use the Nestle Rolled and Ready Cookie Sheets!

    Those rolled and ready cookie sheets are amazing! It's the rolling of the dough that always messes up my sugar cookies. Now I don't have to roll them out anymore. Yes! Love how you made the cookies to top the mug. So cute!

    ah-dorable! I particularly like that you decorated with melted chocolate. Yummmmm. I always did frosting or sprinkles. Chocolate is always better, haha.

    How cute are these? I never would have thought to do that with cookies. This is the second post I've read this week showcasing this cookie dough. I plan to look for it tomorrow.

    I love these! They are just adorable. I really plan on giving sugar cookies the good "college try" -Next- year, I'm such a procrastinator. The dough is ALWAYS the part that absolutely kills me. Our new home will allow the kitchen space for all my mess ups ha-ha!

    I have to say I absolutely love the mugs, definitely want to try these cookies. But my baking skills don't seem to adjust to the Floridian Humidity.

    Those turned out so great! I always have a problem with my cookies running together. It looks like I need to make the dough thinner. I need to buy some more cutters. I just have the tree and the gingerbread man.

Kidding! I do believe travel is so important for kids though: not only will we cherish these memories forever, but I want to introduce them to as many people, cultures, and beautiful features of the world as possible.
