Okay, so the other day I got this craving, right? A craving for those soft, frosted sugar cookies. You know the ones—super colorful, kinda thick, and they practically melt in your mouth. I decided, “Why not? Let’s bake some!” So, I gathered all my ingredients: flour, sugar, butter, eggs, the whole nine yards. I even got some cool food coloring to make the frosting pop.
I started by creaming together the butter and sugar until it was all fluffy. Then, I beat in the eggs one at a time, mixed in the vanilla, and gradually added the dry ingredients. The dough was looking good! I rolled it out, cut out some fun shapes with my cookie cutters, and popped them in the oven. While they were baking, I whipped up some frosting and got to coloring it—pink, blue, green, you name it.
Once the cookies were cooled, I went to town with the frosting. I mean, I really decorated the heck out of them. They looked amazing, if I do say so myself. But then, I had this thought: “Do these things need to be refrigerated?” I mean, they have frosting on them, and that’s got milk and butter, right?

I did a little digging around and found out some cool tips.
- First, you should totally store those frosted beauties in the fridge. Up to a week, they say.
- Second, an airtight container is key. It’s like a little shield that protects your cookies from getting all weird from the moisture and smells in the fridge.
- Third, grab some parchment paper and layer it between the cookies. Not only does this help with any extra moisture, but it also keeps your frosting looking sharp and prevents any color mixing disasters.
So, that’s what I did. I packed my cookies into a container, layered with parchment paper, and tucked them safely in the fridge. And you know what? They stayed delicious and looked just as good as when I first frosted them. It was a total win!
So, if you ever find yourself making a batch of frosted sugar cookies, remember these tips. It is really working well!
