St Patrick's Day Sugar Cookies

Everybody is Irish on St Patrick's Day!

Using this Five Roses Flour recipe for sugar cookies,


just add some green food colouring to the cookie dough and cut out some lucky shamrocks. (I know, this is a club not a shamrock cookie cutter but it works, right?) 

You can add coloured sugar to the tops or bake them plain.

Once cooled frost the plain ones with your favourite icing.  I just creamed a couple of tbsps of butter along with a splash of vanilla extract. Then added icing sugar and a bit of milk mixing until smooth. No real measurements just mix until you like the consistency.
Spread the icing on the cookies, pipe it on if you want to get fancy, then add your sprinkles.
Happy St Patrick's Day!
