Frosting
- Mix butter and powdered sugar together using an electric mixer until fluffy.
- Stir in vanilla, milk, and marshmallow creme and mix well.
- If you want a thicker frosting add a bit more powdered sugar. If you'd like it thinner, add more milk 1 tsp. at a time.
- Spread or pipe over cookies.

I am forever searching for a good soft sugar cookie recipe and yours sounds so wonderful! I can’t wait to try it!!! I love the frosting too! YUM-E!
These were a dream to make. They taste so light & fluffy. And I haven’t even frosted them yet! Thanks for a delicious & easy cookie! Definitely a keeper!
So glad to hear!! 🙂
Does the frosting dry enough that you could stack these in a treat bag?
The frosting sets up a bit after a day (like store bought frosting does). Probably enough to add a couple to a treat bag.
