Candy Corn Cookies


1 package (18oz) refrigerated sugar cookie dough
1/2 C. all-purpose flour
food coloring yellow and orange
White chocolate chips OR frosting
sprinkles OR colored sugar

Preparation:
Divide dough into 3 equal sections. Roll each dough segment in flour. Add orange color to one dough, yellow color to the second dough, leave the third dough colorless. Mix colors in until smooth, dust dough with flour so it is easier to work with. (It gets sticky as it returns to room temperature). Form dough into ropes (snakes) and on a floured surface side by side and lengthwise with the orange rope in the middle. Gently roll dough into a 15x4" rectangle. Using a knife cut dough into 12 equal triangles. Transfer triangles to an ungreased baking sheet. Push a ruler against the sides of the triangles to straighten the edges. Bake 9-11 minutes until lightly browned. Frost bottom portion of cookie with last months leftover frosting and top with sprinkles OR melt white chocolate chips, dip in cookies, then rim with colored sugar.

To turn these cookies into sandwiches, place 1 heaping tablespoon of chocolate frosting between 2 cookies!
