These intricate everything cookies by lifestyle blog Sugar & Cloth creatively offer an unconventional way to put together a sugar cookie recipe. The recipe plays off of the idea of placing everything and anything consumers have on hand into the dough to create a unique cookie drawing upon the tastes of perhaps unlikely flavored combinations.

The recipe begins with a [vanilla sugar cookie dough](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/heritage-sugar-cookie-mix) that is then contrasted and accented with unlikely flavors in the toppings. The toppings can easily be customized to suit whatever [sweet and savory snacks](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/scrambled-cookies) the consumer has on hand such as [sprinkles, chocolates, candy canes](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/holiday-finishing-sugars), gum balls and the like. The toppings are broken up into pieces and haphazardly placed into the vanilla icing.
