How to Make Christmas Pinwheel Sugar Cookies
- Prepare the Dough: Start by dividing the Best Ever Sugar Cookie Dough into two equal portions. Gently mix red food coloring into one half until you reach your desired shade.
- Roll Out Dough: On a piece of parchment paper, roll each dough half out to about ¼ inch thickness.
- Combine Layers: Stack the plain and colored dough with parchment between them. Carefully roll the dough layers together, creating a log shape.
- Chill in the Fridge: Wrap your log in plastic wrap and refrigerate for at least 1 hour.
- Decorate with Sprinkles: After chilling, roll the log in Christmas Nonpareil Sprinkles for coverage, rewrap and chill for another 3 hours or overnight.
- Bake to Perfection: Preheat your oven to 350°F. Slice the log into cookies and bake for 12-15 minutes.
Notes
Optional: Drizzle melted white chocolate on top for an extra festive touch.
