      I honestly haven’t tried using melted butter in place of oil, but if you do let me know how it turns out!

    Hi was wondering if you can store these cookies a few days before serving?
    Making 12 dozen for a cookie exchange and wanted to make some ahead of time 🙂

      Hi Haley,

      You should be able to store these cookies for a few days in air tight containers. Just be sure not to stack them because of the powdered sugar on top. Enjoy! 🙂

    My g’daughter loves these cookies! I’ve tried powered and granulated sugar and she prefers granulated on this kind. I’ve also made chocolate and they’re terrific in powered sugar! These are so easy and fun for the kids to help! Yum! ?
