- Eggs

- Salt
- Classic buttercream frosting (or cream cheese frosting)

Instructions
- Prepare the Cookie Dough: If you’re making your own sugar cookie dough, mix together butter, sugar, eggs, and vanilla extract until creamy. Gradually add flour, baking powder, and salt. Chill the dough for at least 30 minutes.
- Preheat the Oven: Preheat your oven to 350°F (175°C).
- Shape the Shot Glasses: Roll out your chilled cookie dough to about 1/4 inch thick. Using a shot glass mold, cut out shapes to fit into the molds. Press the dough into the molds, making sure to create a hollow center for the shot.
- Bake: Place the molds on a baking sheet and bake for 8-10 minutes or until the edges are lightly golden. Keep an eye on them to avoid over-baking!
- Cool: Once baked, let the cookie shot glasses cool completely in the molds. This helps them hold their shape.
- Decorate: While the cookie glasses cool, whip up your frosting. Once the glasses are cool, decorate the rims with frosting and dip them into festive sprinkles for that holiday flair.
- Fill the Shots: Carefully remove the cookie shot glasses from the molds. Fill each one with your chosen non-alcoholic beverage, like eggnog or milk. Top with a little extra frosting if you like!
- Serve: Present your Christmas Sugar Cookie Shots on a festive platter and enjoy the cheers from your guests!
