Watch as Better Homes and Gardens shows you how to make sugar cookies in cute flower shapes! These homemade cookies are sure to stand out any party or event among the rest. Begin these adorable dessert ideas by forming the sugar cookie dough into 1-1/2 inch diameter balls. Roll each ball in different colored sugar, and place them on a baking sheet about three inches apart from one another. Clean off a pair of sharp scissors and gently cut each ball of sugar cookies almost in half. Cut each half into thirds, but make sure not to cut them completely through. These cuts will form the petals of your sweet homemade sugar cookies, so separate each one until a flower shape is formed. Gently flatten the petals of your personalized cookies to the baking sheet and sprinkle sugar into the center of the flower using the same colored sugar that is on the outside. Place a piece of colorful candy, like an M&M, in the center of each flower for an added bit of sweetness. Bake your easy sugar cookies as directed in the oven, and serve at your next get-together. Try your hand at cutting decorated sugar cookies into different flower shapes for a vast array of events in the future. It's an easy dessert that's also memorable!
