Ingredients

  • 1 roll (16.5 oz) refrigerated sugar cookie dough
  • 1 1/4 cups vanilla ready-to-spread frosting (from 16-oz can)
  • Green food color
  • Red food color
  • Small candies or colored sugar

Steps

  • 1
    Heat oven to 350°F. Remove half of cookie dough from wrapper; refrigerate remaining dough until needed. Cut half of dough into 1/4-inch-thick slices; place 3 inches apart on ungreased cookie sheet.
  • 2
    With small (about 3/4-inch) cutter, cut out hole in center of each slice. Cut each cut-out hole in half, forming 2 small semicircles; place semicircles on dough ring to form bow. Repeat with remaining half of dough.
  • 3
    Bake 7 to 10 minutes or until light golden brown. Cool 2 minutes; remove from cookie sheet and place on wire racks. Cool completely, about 15 minutes.
  • 4
    Meanwhile, in small bowl, mix 3/4 cup of the frosting and enough green food color until desired green color. In another small bowl, mix remaining 1/2 cup frosting and enough red food color until desired pink color.
  • 5
    Frost cooled wreaths with green frosting; frost bows with pink frosting. Decorate with small candies.

Tips from the Betty Crocker Kitchens

  • tip 1
    Use the center of a doughnut cutter to make the hole in each cookie. Or, remove the top of a salt shaker and use that if it's about 3/4 inch in diameter.
  • tip 2
    Use a few of these to decorate the Christmas tree. Use pretty ribbons and tie bows on top to hang from boughs of the tree.
