Pastel Sugar Cookie Sandwiches are colorful, soft sugar cookies filled with creamy frosting—perfect for springtime celebrations like Easter or baby showers.

Ingredients

Scale
  • 1 cup unsalted butter, softened
  • 1 cup granulated sugar
  • 1 large egg
  • 1 teaspoon vanilla extract
  • 2 1/2 cups all-purpose flour
  • 1/2 teaspoon baking powder
  • 1/4 teaspoon salt
  • Food coloring (pink, yellow, green, or pastel shades)
  • 1/2 cup unsalted butter, softened (for frosting)
  • 2 cups powdered sugar (for frosting)
  • 1 tablespoon milk (for frosting)
  • 1/2 teaspoon vanilla extract (for frosting)

Instructions

  1. Preheat oven to 350°F (175°C). Line baking sheets with parchment paper.
  2. In a large bowl, cream together butter and sugar until light and fluffy. Beat in the egg and vanilla extract.
  3. In a separate bowl, whisk together flour, baking powder, and salt. Gradually add to the wet ingredients and mix until a soft dough forms.
  4. Divide dough into portions and tint each with different pastel food coloring. Mix until colors are evenly distributed.
  5. Roll dough into small balls (about 1 tablespoon each) and place 2 inches apart on baking sheets. Flatten slightly with your fingers or the bottom of a glass.
  6. Bake for 8–10 minutes, or until edges are just set. Let cool completely on a wire rack.
  7. To make frosting, beat butter until creamy. Add powdered sugar, milk, and vanilla extract, and beat until smooth and fluffy.
  8. Once cookies are cooled, spread or pipe frosting on the flat side of one cookie and sandwich with another cookie.

Notes

  • For a neater look, pipe the frosting using a piping bag with a round or star tip.
  • Store in an airtight container at room temperature for up to 3 days or refrigerate for longer freshness.
  • You can freeze unfrosted cookies and assemble before serving.
