Ingredients

  • 3 eggs
  • 1 cup sugar
  • 2 tablespoons vegetable oil
  • 1 teaspoon vanilla extract
  • 1/4 teaspoon salt
  • 2 cups all-purpose flour
  • 1 teaspoon baking powder
  • 1/2 teaspoon baking soda
  • 1/2 cup milk
  • 1/2 cup butter, melted
  • Assorted food coloring
  • Cookie cutters in desired shapes
  • Confectioners’ sugar
  • Edible decorations, such as sprinkles, glitter, and edible markers

Instructions

Step 1: Make the Dough

In a large bowl, whisk together the eggs, sugar, vegetable oil, vanilla extract, and salt. In a separate bowl, sift together the flour, baking powder, and baking soda. Slowly add the dry ingredients to the wet ingredients, whisking until combined. Slowly add the milk and melted butter, whisking until combined.

Step 2: Divide the Dough

Divide the dough into several small bowls. Add a few drops of food coloring to each bowl, and stir to combine. You can make as many colors as you like. Once the dough has been colored, cover each bowl with a damp cloth and let rest for 30 minutes.

Step 3: Roll and Cut the Dough

Preheat the oven to 350°F (175°C). Place a piece of parchment paper on a work surface. Take one of the colored doughs and roll it out to a thickness of 1/4 inch (6mm). Using cookie cutters in your desired shapes, cut out the dough and place on the parchment paper. Repeat with the remaining colors of dough.

Step 4: Bake and Decorate

Bake the toppers for 8-10 minutes, until lightly golden brown. Let cool completely. Once the toppers are cool, you can decorate them with confectioners’ sugar, edible decorations, and edible markers.
