Use Easter-themed cookie cutters (such as bunnies, eggs, or flowers) to cut out your cookies.
Place the cookies on the prepared baking sheets, spacing them about 1 inch apart.
Bake the Cookies:
Bake in the preheated oven for 8-10 minutes or until the edges of the cookies are lightly golden. Keep an eye on them to avoid over-baking.

Decorate (Optional):
Once the cookies are completely cooled, you can start decorating them. You can use royal icing, buttercream frosting, or just sprinkle them with colorful sugars or sprinkles.
For a festive touch, you can add candy decorations like mini chocolate eggs or jelly beans for an Easter vibe!
