With mixer set on low speed, slowly add in flour and mix until combine. Transfer dough to an airtight container and refrigerate until firm about 1 1/⏱️ 2 hours (0r freeze folding dough once with a wooden spoon halfway through chilling until firm about ⏱️ 40 minutes - which is what I did).
3
Preheat oven to 375 degrees. Line cookie sheets with Silpats or parchment paper. Roll dough out on a generously floured surface to 1/4-inch thickness then cut dough into desired shapes using cookie cutters.
4
Carefully transfer cut shapes to prepared baking sheets and bake in preheated oven for ⏱️ 8-10 minutes, edges should not brown. Allow cookies to cool for at least ⏱️ 5 minutes before transferring to a wire rack to cool. Cool cookies completely then frost with icing.

*I got 26 cookies, I made about 1/2 of them large snowflakes and half of them small snowflakes so it will just depend on the size of your cookie cutters.
