Ingredients
  1. 1
  2. pouch (1 lb 1.5 oz) Betty Crocker® sugar cookie mix
  3. 1/2
  4. cup butter or margarine, softened
  5. 1/4
  6. cup Gold Medal® all-purpose flour
  7. 1
  8. egg
  9. 3
  10. food colors
  11. Granulated sugar, if desired
  12. 1/2
  13. tub Betty Crocker® Whipped vanilla ready-to-spread frosting
Instructions
  1. 1 Heat oven to 375°F. Stir cookie mix, butter, flour and egg in medium bowl until dough forms. Divide dough evenly among 3 bowls; tint each dough by stirring in a few drops of desired food color.
  2. 2 Shape 1/3 cup of each color of dough into a rope about 5 inches long and 1 inch 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. 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. Repeat with remaining dough. (When rerolling dough scraps, carefully lay matching colors together.)
  3. 3 Bake 7 to 9 minutes or until edges are light golden brown. Cool 1 minute; remove from cookie sheet to wire rack. Cool completely, about 30 minutes. Spread frosting on bottoms of half the cookies. Top with remaining cookies.
