Sugar and spice and everything Nice-that's what these cookies are made. That is true. Soft pillowy Brown Sugar Spice cookies that have crisp edges and soft centers are filled with frosting cream brown sugar and a pinch of spice. They really fall biscuit perfection. I love cookies like this, because what would otherwise be a plain jane brown cookie (albiet a delicious one) is instantly made to look like something fancy with pillowy swirled icing.
These cookies seem perfect for the (promise,) a longer future costs, and will last throughout the holidays when a spicy cookie just hit up. If you have not noticed- I really something for the combo kitchen frosting, I think it's just a simple biscuit otherwise so beautiful and special. I hope you think so!
