This Easter weekend, consider baking a batch of these fun and festive cookies.

"These jumbo sugar cookies were inspired by the viral brand, Crumbl Cookies," says Sandra Flegg of She’s Not Cookin’. "Decorate them with your favorite Easter color for the frosting and the sky’s the limit for sprinkles!"

4. Add dry ingredients to the butter mixture, 1 cup at a time, mixing on low speed after each addition.

7. Dip a glass into sanding sugar and press firmly into the ball of cookie dough.  The edges of the cookies will crinkle, and the cookies should still be about ¼" thick.

8. Bake in a 350 °F oven for 10 to 12 minutes.  Cool completely on wire racks before frosting.

9. For icing: Using the whisk attachment of a stand mixer, combine butter and powdered sugar, beating on low speed until combined.  Add vanilla extract and continue to mix until well-combined.

10. Add in the heavy cream, one tablespoon at a time, beating on high speed for one minute, once all the cream has been mixed into the icing. Scrape down the sides of the bowl if needed.

11. Add food coloring to reach desired shade. (Feel free to use Easter colors)

12. Transfer icing to a decorator bag fitted with a Wilton 2A round tip.  Starting in the middle, pipe circles, leaving the edge of the cookie exposed without icing.

13. Garnish with a decorative Easter egg in the center of each cookie.
