Ingredients
 

  • Sugar cookie dough you can make your own, but it's not necessary
  • Vanilla icing jarred is fine, but instructions for mine are below
  • Food coloring

Instructions

  • Divide icing into however many colors you want to use and color each with food coloring (make sure they're nice and bright!
  • Roll out sugar cookie dough into a large rectangle.
  • Score lightly so you have as many columns as you have icing colors
  • Fill each column with a different color icing. (Use a thin layer, otherwise this will happen when you bake. They will still taste good, but they won't look so hot!)
  • Roll up and throw in the freezer for 30 minutes (don't skip this step!)
  • Bake according to your sugar cookie recipe.
  • Enjoy!!!
