Green and Red Cookies Estimated Times: Preparation - 5 min | Cooking - 14 min | Yields - 18 cookies (1 1/2 dozen) We make it easy by starting with our refrigerated tub dough and dressing it up with a quick and easy holiday touch of red and green food coloring. No two cookies will look the same but all will be very festive! Ingredients: Directions: PREHEAT oven to 325º F.
DIVIDE dough in half. Stir food coloring into cookie dough as desired. Refrigerate 15 minutes for easier handling. Divide dough into 36 pieces. Press 2 different colored pieces of dough together; roll into 18, 1-inch balls. Place 2 inches apart on ungreased baking sheets.
BAKE for 14 to 16 minutes or until edges are set but centers are still soft. Cool on baking sheets for 2 minutes; remove to wire racks to cool completely.
TIP: • Food coloring paste or gel will result in more intensely colored cookies. Try coloring one half of the dough either red or green and leaving the other half plain. • Create three types of Christmas cookies from just one tub of NESTLÉ® TOLL HOUSE® Refrigerated Sugar Cookie Tub Dough. Make this recipe along with two other 12 Days of Christmas Cookies recipes. • Recipe can easily be doubled or tripled for a larger batch. |
