Ingredients
- 2 (16-oz.) logs sugar cookie dough
- 1/2 c. all-purpose flour
- 1 (7-oz.) tube white cookie icing
- 1 (7-oz.) tube blue cookie icing
- 1 (16-oz.) tub vanilla frosting
- 1 (10-oz.) bag M&M's Minis
Directions
Step 1
In a large bowl, mix sugar cookie dough and flour with your hands until combined. Divide in half. Roll out each half on parchment paper to 1⁄4" thick. Use a dreidel cookie cutter to cut out cookies. You’ll need three cookies for each treat: two whole cookies, and one with a hole in the middle, to hold your treats inside. So cut in numbers divisible by 3: 6, 9, 12, 15, etc. Every third cookie, use the back of a piping tip to cut out the center of the cookie, like a donut. Once cookies are cut, refrigerate at least 1 hour.Step 2
Preheat oven to 350º. Bake cookies until golden around edges, about 9 minutes. Let cool completely.Step 3
Assemble dreidels: Outline the edge of a whole cookie with cookie icing.Step 4
Place a cutout cookie on top of the icing. Fill the hole with some M&M’s Minis.Step 5
Outline the edge of the filled cookie with cookie icing and top with another whole cookie. Transfer to a wire rack placed on a baking sheet and let cookie icing set, 5 minutes. Repeat with other cookies.Step 6
Transfer frosting to a liquid measuring cup and heat in microwave until melted, 30 seconds. Pour frosting over assembled dreidels, allowing it spill over the sides to cover.Step 7
Let harden 1 hour, then decorate with blue icing.More Recipe: Brown Butter-Cardamom Spitzbuben Recipe
