We made the most delicious soft and thick sugar cookies and then turned them into a summer celebration! They’re topped with a creamy buttercream frosting and taste AMAZING!! But just to make them a little more fun, we decorated them to look like swimming pools. We added in teddy bear swimmers, candy rafts and gummy pool floats and turned these cookies into an end of summer celebration!! These are perfect for late summer gatherings and a really fun project for kids and families. So follow along and make these cookies for YOUR end of summer celebration!!!!
