These were great! This kids had so much fun putting them together. It's a Do Again for a fun Saturday afternoon. Adults didn't expect them to taste a good as they did, Yummy!

So much fun to make! Needs a little something extra though. Tastes more like a shortbread sugar cookie.

These cookies really look cute. I made them in Orange and Black for Halloween, and gave them out at the Children's Halloween party as favors instead of giving them goodie bags. I new they were going to get alot more candy by Trick or Treating. It is very time consuming, and really no flavor to the cookie. My husband and daughter really didn't like them except for the way they looked. I am going to rate this with three stars for appearance. Maybe a more traditional sugar cookie recipe would go better with this type of cookie if your looking for flavor. I even tried adding more sugar and vanilla extract to make it sweeter, but I guess it didn't work.

Outcome was a Huge success!!! Was a bit more time consuming that I'd usually put into baking ~ though I will make them again. Made them a bit smaller and got 20 out of this recipe.

These were good tasting but not sweet enough for my taste. Next time I'll add more sugar and more extract or just use the idea with another sugar cookie recipe. They are definitely fun to make and cute looking. My 11 year old neighbor, sister-in-law, and I made them yesterday and had a great time. We started out with four colors but ran out of two before we were done. Next time (and there will be a next time) I'll portion the dough out more equally and chill the dough both before and after forming the balls.

These were pretty good. I think most kids would love them. They taste like a normal sugar cookie and are very fun to look at.

My 3 1/2 year old son had a great time making these. He only made one cookie and I was stuck making the rest. It was fun but the dough got soft very quickly. I would suggest working in very small batches or rolling all of the balls first then put them in the fridge and then make the cookie. Beware they are time consuming but worth it. We gave these away as end of the nursery school year gifts. The kids thought it was cool to eat something that looked like playdough.

These are not good! The dough did not feel like play dough- it just felt like normal dough, but oily. I tried baking them, and they wouldn't. So, I baked them much longer and they finally did something, but they were cracked everywhere. Also, the color was faded, probably because I used food coloring. They have no flavoring or taste at all. Three stars for the cute idea.

After reading the reviews, I decided to try these using another dough recipe (Best Rolled Sugar Cookies from this site also). These look beautiful! Thanks for a great idea!

I know a lot of people think this cookie really lacks in the sweet section. What we do when we make them is dip the top part in white sugar before baking. I actually really like that this is such a mild cookie and so fun to make! I wear a pair of rubber gloves when making these to avoid food coloring stains and also so that I can work with my hands rather than a mixer. My younger cousin really, really likes these...I'm going to have to hide the batch I just made so I can make it to my show tomorrow with enough for the cast!

I have been wanting to make these for a while now and I am so glad that I finally did! These are SO cute and delicious too! I followed the recipe exactly and found the dough was great to work with and had a great flavor. I think next time I will make these a little smaller though. All in all a fantastic fun recipe that I will for sure make again! Thanks for posting :)

All the reviews dont talk much about the recipe its self...If you are looking for a good sugar cookie recipe, I would not suggest this one. These cookies had a doughie taste and not much flavor at all. My 2 year old loves sugar in all forms but she would not eat these. I cooked the first batch exactly the way it read and they came out soft and super doughie tasting. So I thought if i cooked them longer then they would taste better. I cooked the second batch and 350 for 15 mins. still didnt taste good. Third batch I cooked them at 375 for 20 mins lol, they came out crunchy(not burned, not even browned)but tasted better. If you like the way the look then try your own favorite sugar cookie recipe. These were fun to make and are more time consuming then most recipes but I thought they were easy. Im gonna make playdough cookies but use my own recipe.

Loved doing these cookies! My son thought they were great. I didn't use the sticks. Read in other reviews that they didn't have much taste, I added a lot of almond flavoring. They tasted awesome! Will definately make this again.

I agree with the review that the cookies tasted a bit "doughy"... but they were fun and colorful and the kids loved them so they passed all the major tests. Besides... it's better for me to have cookies that aren't a huge temptation anyhow!

I love these cookies! Super easy! Super fun! And they look so awesome! I made them for a Halloween party in orange and black and I kept having to refill the plate! I made them with Steeler colors for the super bowl and they were so perfect! They are a little crunchy which I don't mind, but I have put a piece of bread in the bag and it softens them up perfectly.

These were fun to make with my daughter. Next batch we'll have add a lil something.. Perhaps some lemon or lime zest. They're not a horrible cookie, just falls flat flavorwise. You'll want to make sure the dough is chilled well.. I threw ours in the freezer for an hour and it was firm enough. Once warms up it gets messy and cracks. Posted a couple pictures of how mine turned out.

These were very good! They were a hit at my stepsister's daughters first birthday party. They did take a little time, but oh well, doesn't everything. If I was so worried about the time, I could buy some at the store, no thanks!
