Betty Crocker Cut Out Cookies
Betty Crocker has a variety of cookie mixes, but the best one for cut-out cookies is Betty Crocker Sugar Cookie Mix. However, feel free to experiment with Snickerdoodle Cookie Mix and others. Just keep in mind that not every cookie dough can be easily rolled out, so you will need to add more flour and an egg.
