Rose Sugar Cookies

I’ve made rose cupcakes a few times before and it’s amazing how such an easy frosting technique really seems so beautiful and impressive.

I don’t love food coloring for my kids so I am always looking alternatives. For these I used a combo of freeze dried raspberries and natural food coloring.

Start by combining dry ingredients in a medium bowl and set aside. In a large mixing bowl cream the butter and sugar on medium speed. Add the vanilla extract and eggs and mix until smooth and creamy. minutes.

Scoop cookie dough onto a prepared baking sheet and bake cookies for 10-12 minutes.

For the frosting: Cream together the butter and powdered sugar on high speed and then add lemon juice and milk or cream as needed until a fluffy and creamy frosting is achieved.
