For extra flavor, add a pinch of nutmeg or lemon zest to the cookie dough. Chilling the dough is crucial for preventing the cookies from spreading too much during baking. If the icing is too thick, add a teaspoon of milk at a time until you reach the desired consistency. These cookies can be stored in an airtight container at room temperature for up to 3 days.
