The holiday season is a busy time for everyone. Between school events, holiday parties, and extra hours at work it can be hard to find time to do the things we really enjoy. I’ve been working a lot of hours the last few weeks, so I’m looking forward to taking some time off and enjoying it with my family! In the mean time, I’ve been trying to do fun things with the kids before the holiday season is over, like watching Christmas movies and baking cookies.
Each year the kids and I bake holiday cookies. We usually give them to family and friends, but we also enjoy some too! The process for making our traditional sugar cookie dough can be a little time-consuming, so I was happy to discover Nestle Toll House Rolled & Ready Cookie Dough Sheets at the grocery store.
Nestle Toll House Rolled and Ready Cookie Dough makes baking during the holiday season quick, easy and stress free. Each pack comes with two sheets of pre-rolled and floured cookie dough sheets. All you have to do is take the sheets out and you can instantly start creating your favorite cookies!
My twin girls had so much fun making their own cookies using the Rolled and Ready Cookie Dough. I gave each of them a sheet of dough and then I let them use our holiday cookie cutters to cut out designs.
Usually they want to decorate their cookies with frosting or sprinkles, but this time they wanted to make “candy cane cookies,” so I crushed up a couple of candy canes for them to sprinkle on top.
They turned out so cute and I can’t get over how easy they were to make!

I love it when it's so easy for children to help in the kitchen. Some of the other things I've done with my children didn't end so well when it was too difficult or too messy.
