Can anyone recommend a kid friendly cookie dough recipe for shaping?

If you're OK with margarine (I usually am not but these work better than the oil ones).

Cookies for Decorating

4 sticks margarine
2 cups sugar
2 eggs
6 cups flour
2 teaspoons pure vanilla extract and 2 tablespoons vanilla sugar

Preheat oven to 350° F.
Using an electric mixer with the cake beater attachments, cream the margarine with the sugar, add eggs and then add flour.
Roll out dough between 2 pieces of parchment paper.
Cut out shapes with cookie cutters. Transfer parchment paper with cookie shapes onto a cookie sheet size aluminum pan.
Bake for 8 minutes. Allow to cool and harden before moving the cookies.
Decorate with icing.

Large recipe. Easily halves with 3 cups flour and 2 sticks margarine (1 egg, 1 cup sugar, 1 vanilla).

Look up Naomi Elberg’s hamantaschen recipe. I have used that for cookies many times, with great results. (She goes by NaomiTGIS on Instagram.)

Otherwise, the Spice and Spirit has a great sugar cookie recipe. I think it’s the very first cookie recipe.

Good luck!

No it's not meant to puff. You need a flat cookie to decorate.
