butter

🥗Healthier: coconut oil

💰Cheaper: margarine

jelly candies

🥗Healthier: fruit leathers

💰Cheaper: gummy candies

Fruit leathers offer a natural fruit flavor with less sugar.

1

Beat room temperature butter until fluffy.

2

Add powdered sugar and mix well, scraping the sides.

3

Add 1 whole egg and beat it in.

4

Add vanilla extract for flavor.

5

Gradually add all-purpose flour and baking soda to the butter mixture, mixing in batches.

6

Once combined, scrape the dough onto the countertop and knead for 5 to 6 minutes.

7

Cover with plastic wrap and refrigerate for 3 to 4 hours or overnight, or freeze for up to 1 month.

8

When ready to bake, divide the dough into halves or thirds and sprinkle flour on the countertop.

9

Roll out the dough to desired thickness.

10

Use cookie cutters to cut out cookies, removing the center for the glass effect.

11

Transfer the cookies to a baking sheet carefully, then cut out the center of each cookie.

12

Bake in a preheated oven at 170°C (340°F) for 10 minutes or until golden at the edges.

13

Once baked, place a jelly candy in the center of each cookie and bake again at 170°C (340°F) for 7 to 8 minutes, watching closely to prevent burning.

14

Once the candies are melted, remove from the oven and let cool.

15

Once cooled, peel off the parchment paper.

16

Add a spoonful of sprinkles on top of each glass cookie.

17

Melt sugar until it reaches a thread consistency and carefully drizzle it around the edges of the cookies.

18

Take another half of the cookie and press it on top of the sprinkles for 2 to 3 seconds, being careful not to break the cookies.
