MERRY MAKER CHRISTMAS SUGAR COOKIES

Steps:

• Mix sugar and butter.
• Add eggs and flavorings; mix well.
• Mix dry ingredients together, and blend in to other mixture.
• Divide dough into several parts.
• Tint each a different color.
• Make as many different colors as you like, but make sure they are really different to get the strongest contrast.
• Refrigerate dough for two or three hours.
• Take each color of dough and roll into small balls.
• Place an assortment of different colors next to each other, making sure no two of the same colors touch.
• Roll together, until about 1/8-inch thick.
• Cut as many cookies as possible from dough, because if you reroll it, it will smear together.
• Or, you can make a few at a time by rolling only a few balls at a time.
• Bake cookies at 375°F for 7-8 minutes, or until lightly golden on a lightly greased cookie sheet.
• These cookies freeze well.
