What it is
These are sweet, crisp cookies that have been coated with a layer of sugary frosting. The cookies themselves are typically made with a simple sugar cookie dough, providing a buttery and slightly sweet base. The frosting adds an extra layer of sweetness and a smooth texture that contrasts with the cookie's crunch. They are often decorated with colorful sprinkles, adding visual appeal and a bit of extra texture.
