Hood Family Christmas 2015 |

Ingredients:
- 1 pouch (1 lb 1.5 oz) Betty Crocker™ sugar cookie mix {I used Egg Nog flavor}
- 3 tbsp flour
- 1/2 cup butter{1 stick}, melted
- 1 egg
- green food coloring/powder, optional
- red decorating sanding sugar and candy beads, optional
- leaf and bow shaped cookie cutters
Directions:
- Heat oven to 375°F.
- In medium bowl, stir cookie mix, flour, melted butter and egg until soft dough forms.
- On a floured surface, roll out a small portion of dough and cut out two bows using a bow cookie cutter.
- Gather dough scraps and combine with the rest of the dough.
- Sprinkle the bow shapes with red sanding sugar to cover and place on a line cookie sheet.
- Gather remaining sugar cookie dough into a ball and make a well in the center. Add green food color or color powder to the well and use hands {this may get messy} to knead color evenly into the dough.
- Place green dough on a floured surface and roll to about 1/4-inch thickness. Cut leaf shapes, re-rolling dough as needed.
- On lined cookie sheets, place cutouts 1 inch apart.
- If you’d like you can use a toothpick to create veins on the leaves before baking.
- Bake 6 minutes or until edges are light golden brown.
- Remove from oven and immediately press one or two red candy beads on the leaves for the “berries”.
- Cool for a few minutes then remove from cookie sheets and cool completely.
- Store cookies in tightly covered container.
- When ready to serve, create a wreath by arranging leaf cookies in a ring shape, overlapping some, on a round platter with the red bow cookie in the center.
