I started out with a different plan on making sugar cookies. I ended up with this design! I divided my sugar cookie dough and colored half of it. Then I kind of kneaded it together and mixed it up!
The fun part about doing this is that you can change the color up for any occassion ~ blue and white for BYU fans, green and white for St. Patricks day, etc.
I liked how it turned out~kind of proud of myself for making something fun and new! Ben is bringing these to school today for his class Valentine treat and I sent some with Todd to work so I wouldn't sit at home eating them! Something about sugar cookies that are sooo yummy!
You can use your favorite sugar cookie recipe, or I have added the one I used that to me never fails and is super soft and yummy!
HAPPY VALENTINES DAY!
