Giant Candy Corn Cookies

1. 1

   Prepare cookie dough according to package directions for rolled cookies.

2. 2

   Divide dough into thirds. Tint one third yellow and one third orange with food coloring. Tint remaining third brown by mixing in cocoa and 2 drops red food coloring.

3. 3

   Chill dough until firm, about 1 hour.

4. 4

   To make cookies, pull off about 1/4 of each color dough and roll into a 1/2-inch thick rope. On a sheet of waxed paper, lay ropes horizontally next to each other, with orange in the middle. Cover with another sheet of waxed paper.

5. 5

   Roll ropes out until dough is 3-inches wide. Remove top sheet of waxed paper. Trim edges. Cut into triangles (like this:VVVVVV).

6. 6

   Arrange cookies 1-inch apart on greased baking sheets (I use parchment paper instead of greasing).

7. 7

   Bake at 375u00b0 for 6-7 minutes, or until edges just begin to turn golden.

8. 8

   Cool 1 minute on sheets. Transfer to wire racks and cool completely. Repeat with remaining dough.
