Baking with the kids is a fun time. There’s lots of opportunity to have them help with these cookies, too. Yes, an adult needs to run the oven, but even our youngest can help add sprinkles and frosting to these cookies.

Can I use store bought cookies?

While these cookies are super easy to make, you CAN use store bought chocolate chip cookies. Simply add the frosting and sprinkles in between 2 cookies to make your sandwich.
