Lucky Charms Swig Cookies
Have you ever tried a standard Swig Sugar Cookie before? If not, you have to and if you have kids you need to try this version with Lucky Charms. These are a perfect dessert to make for St. Paddy’s Day, too! I made my icing pink because who doesn’t like pink frosting! But… you can make yours any color you choose. Green, blue, even left white would all look great! My kids had fun helping me with this cookie. They especially loved sorting out the marshmallows from the cereal. I think a few purple horseshoes may have disappeared along the way! To store these cookies, let the frosting set up a few minutes and then layer them in a tupperware between sheets of wax paper. I hope your kids enjoy this!
