Easy Sugar Cookie Teacher Treats

Whip up these easy teacher treats as a way to thank the teachers in your life! No fancy decorating needed - just cookies, clear treat bags, and cute printables!

With just a few weeks to go before school starts back up, it's time to get those school supplies ready and start thinking about teacher gift ideas! I know how hectic this time of year can be, so today I'm collaborating with my favorite food-safe packaging supplier, ClearBags, to show you how to make EASY homemade teacher treats that even the kiddos can help with! No fancy cookie decorating needed - just some cookie sticks, frosting, clear treat bags, and printables!

How to Make Sugar Cookie Teacher Treats

1. Cut sugar cookie dough into 1.25 x 5" sticks with a knife or cookie stick cutter. For pink eraser cookies, cut each stick in half to get 2 smaller cookies.
2. Once cooled, frost each cookie stick yellow (or pink for the erasers). Place in refrigerator until frosting sets.
3. Cut out pencil printables using an exacto knife or scissors.
4. Slip each cookie stick into a 2x8" Crystal Clear Food-Safe Bag then tie closed with twine. Attach pencil tip & eraser printable to outside of bag with double-sided tape then finish off with a teacher gift tag, if desired!

Tip: To make the ruler cookie, simply use a black permanent marker to draw lines on outside of bag! 

What I love about these easy teacher cookies is that they don't require fancy decorating skills or a ton of different colors of frosting. Just mix up one frosting color, slip in a skinny food-safe clear bag and then let the printables make the design come together!

Top each cookie treat bag off with a printable teacher gift tag and send those kiddos off to school with a fun, no-hassle teacher gift!
