These soft frosted sugar cookies are so tender and delicious! The sugar cookies themselves are light and cakey, and they're topped with a luscious homemade vanilla buttercream and decorated with sprinkles.
Growing up, I always loved eating those classic Lofthouse cookies. Chances are you know the ones I'm talking about — the soft, cakey cookies topped with that iconic pink frosting and sprinkles.
I don't really buy Lofthouse cookies anymore, so I wanted to try my hand at making my own version, and I'm so happy with how this recipe turned out! These soft frosted sugar cookies are light and tender, and they're that much more delicious because they're homemade.
