Celebrations will look a bit different for many of us this Easter, but there are still fun activities and treats you can enjoy with your family. Target has you covered with these fun do-it-yourself sugar cookie kits!
What’s Included in the Kit?
Archer Farms wants to add some sweetness to your Easter celebration. There are two different shapes of cookies to choose from—Easter egg or bunny—and you can’t go wrong with either. Each kit comes with four pre-baked sugar cookies, icing and sprinkles. Let the kiddos go wild with their imagination and have fun playing with their food. In this case, it’s totally OK.
Help your bored kiddos whip up these fun baked treats, too.
Where Do I Find Them?
The Easter sugar cookie sets are available at Target for $4.99 each. Since we’re all doing our best to practice social distancing and flatten the curve, try Target’s grocery delivery or curbside pickup to score these tasty treats and anything else that’s in your Target cart. If your location doesn’t have this kit for pickup, support a crafter with cookie decorating kits from Etsy.
Still looking to fill your belly and your Easter basket? These Easter treats are available for pickup or delivery—and they’re the best this year has to offer. Who can say no to a Reese’s peanut butter bunny?
Can I Make My Own Kit at Home?

These basic cookie recipes made with pantry staples are worth a nibble, too.

My grandmother started the tradition of making this molded Easter lamb cake when I was little. We continue to make it every Easter. The memory is so special that I keep the lamb mold in my kitchen next to my cookbooks as a decoration. Make sure to grease and flour the mold really good so that the cake does not stick. — Debra Waggoner, Grand Island, Nebraska

The yellow peeps make eye-catching flower petals, and I carefully placed chocolate chips in a circular pattern to resemble the seeds in the middle of a sunflower.
