For a nutty twist, add a handful of finely chopped pecans or walnuts to the cookie dough. If you have kids who aren’t keen on nuts, sprinkle some colorful sugar crystals on top of the glaze before it sets to make the cookies more fun and festive.
For those looking to reduce sugar, try using a sugar substitute that measures cup-for-cup with regular sugar. Lastly, for a tangy flavor, add a splash of lemon juice to the glaze.
