For the best results, I recommend packaging the cookies individually in plastic wrap or bags and then placing them in a plastic container in the freezer. Let them defrost at room temperature while still in the plastic container &ndash; this can help cut down on colors bleeding or other moisture issues.&nbsp;<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<\/div>\n\n\n\n<figure class=\"wp-block-image size-full\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" width=\"1200\" height=\"1800\" data-pin-description=\"Watercolor Rose Sugar Cookies are gorgeous, romantic sugar cookies with a beautiful watercolor design.

Measure your flour by spooning flour into your measuring cup, then use the back of a knife to level off the top of the cup. <\/li>\n\n\n\n<li><strong>Roll your dough<\/strong>&nbsp;between two sheets of parchment or waxed paper, and roll out until it is 1\/4-inch thick. The thickness of the dough really makes a big difference in how crispy or soft the cookies turn out after being baked. I like rolling between parchment paper because it reduces the need for added flour during the rolling process, which can make cookies dry and tough.<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li><strong>Freeze cut-out cookies<\/strong>&nbsp;for about 10 minutes before baking to help them hold their shape.&nbsp;<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li><strong>Use&nbsp;light-colored, heavy baking sheets&nbsp;<\/strong>that are not insulated. Dark or thin cookie sheets can cause the cookies to burn on the bottom before they&rsquo;re cooked all the way through, and insulated cookie sheets can cause your cookies to spread too much.&nbsp;<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li><strong>Test bake<\/strong>&nbsp;1 or 2 cookies on a baking sheet before baking a full batch. Ovens and baking sheets can produce drastically different results, and your baking time might vary from what the recipe says. Doing a test bake to figure out your personal timing will ensure all of your cookies turn out well!<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n\n<\/div><\/div>\n\n<div class=\"block-quick-links cwp-large style-circle
