Betty Crocker Sugar Cookie Tree Ornaments (2)Holidays often start with simple traditions for our family like getting the tree and decorating the house. Making sweet treats is another big part of our holiday and our girls enjoy cooking and baking. We’re making a lot of cookies this year to bring to different functions.

We enjoy creating things together and cookies from Betty Crocker are easy to make and fun to enjoy. Our oldest can easily follow the directions n the package and it’s really something we do together. I let her pick any Betty Crocker recipe to make and she chose the ornament sugar cookies. We started right away making a Betty Crocker Sugar Cookie Mix. Betty Crocker Sugar Cookie Tree Ornaments (4)After making the cookies we picked our favorite cookie cutters to cut them out.
