We wanted to create a unique homemade snack recipe to serve at our Little Dino Birthday Parry! Our Snickerdoodke Fossil Cookie Recipe is full of dinosaur-themed fun and takes only minutes! It is so easy to complete, even the kids can get in on the decorating fun!
- Pre-made Cookie Dough (Store-Bought)
- Cinnamon
- Orange and Green Gel Icing
Start your Snickerdoodle Fossil Cookies by opening up your premade cookie dough and placing it onto a lined baking sheet.
Next, sprinkle your premade dough with a bit of cinnamon to create a natural, fossil look.
Next, bake your cookies per the instructions on the cookie dough packaging.
While your cookies are in the oven baking, give your dinosaurs a good wash with warm water and soap to ensure they are clean for the next step!
When the cookies are finished baking and are still warm, gently press a dinosaur shape or a dinosaur foot onto your cookie. Feel free to mix and match sizes, shapes and types of dinosaurs!
Now, using your gel icing, fill in the imprint you just created to create a colorful fossil look! We opted for sparkling green and orange gel icing, but you can choose any colors! The kids especially enjoyed this part!
Lastly, serve up your Snickerdoodle Dinosaur Fossil Cookies at a dinosaur themed party or as a fun and educational snack!
