    Easter Egg Sugar Cookies Recipe Tips & Notes<\/h2>\n\n\n\n
      \n
    • Be sure to use cold butter. It contributes significantly to the very short<\/em> chill time needed before baking!<\/li>\n\n\n\n
    • You can use royal icing, of course. But I used a simple icing, which I thought worked perfectly, and I’ll include that recipe below.<\/li>\n\n\n\n
    • I used a clean paint brush for my “speckles.” The stiff-bristled brushes that are typically used by kids (think large Crayola brushes) are perfect for this. I’ve also seen people suggest using a new toothbrush, which would work really well too. Watch the video below to see how I used a simple flicking motion to splatter the cocoa mixture onto my cookies!<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n\n\n
