These rainbow cookies make into cute little sandwiche type cookies, another good one for Easter, or if you don't have a egg shape cookie cutter, use whatever shape you feel like. Enjoy Ingredients:
1 pouch betty crocker sugar cookie mix |
1/2 cup margarine or butter, melted |
1/4 cup all-purpose flour |
1 egg |
3 food colors |
white coarse sugar crystals or granulated sugar, if desired |
1/2 tub betty crocker rich and creamy vanilla ready-to-spread frosting |
Directions:
1. Heat oven to 375*
2. Stir cookie mix, margarine, flour and egg until soft dough forms.
3. Divide dough evenly among 3 bowls; tint each dough by stirring in a few drops of desired food color.
4. Shape 1/3 cup of each color of dough into a rope about 5 inches long and 1inch in diameter Place ropes side by side and a little more than 1/4 inch apart on floured surface; roll until 1/4 inch thick.
5. Cut with 2 to 2 1/2 inch egg-shaped cookie cutter so each cookie has 3 colors. Sprinkle with sugar. Place 2 inches apart on ungreased cookie sheet.
6. Repeat with remaining dough. When rerolling dough scraps, carefully lay matching colors together. For marbled cookies, mix colors of dough scraps but don't mix colors too much or they won't be distinct.
7. Bake 7-9 minutes or until edges are light golden brown. Cool 1 minutes; remove from cookie sheet to wire rack. Cool completely, about 30 minutes.
8. Sread frosting on bottoms of half the cookkies. Top with remaining
9. cookies. (18 sandwich cookies)
