TOTAL TIME 27 mins
INGREDIENTS
- 1 17.5 ounce bag snickerdoodle cookie mix (you will not be using the cinnamon-sugar package for this recipe)
- ▢½ cup (1 stick) salted butter melted
- ▢1 large egg
- ▢3 tbsp red flavored gelatin powder (about ½ of a 3 ounce package)
- ▢3 tbsp blue flavored gelatin powder (about ½ of a 3 ounce package)
- ▢3 tbsp green flavored gelatin powder (about ½ of a 3 ounce package)
- ▢3 tbsp yellow flavored gelatin powder (about ½ of a 3 ounce package)
- ▢1 cup granulated white sugar
INSTRUCTIONS
- Preheat the oven to 350 degrees Fahrenheit and prepare a sheet pan by lining it with parchment paper or a silicone baking mat.
- In a large bowl, stir together the cookie mix, melted butter, and egg until fully combined.
- Separate the cookie dough evenly into four small mixing bowls.
- To each bowl, knead in 3 Tablespoons of each color of flavored gelatin. You should have four different colored doughs when you finish. (I found it was easier to use my hands for this part)
- Place the sugar in a shallow bowl, you will be rolling your cookies in it as you prepare them.
- Scoop out the cookies using a 2 Tablespoon cookie scoop and roll them into balls. Roll them in the sugar until completely covered.
- Place the balls on the prepared sheet pan with 2 inches between each cookie. Bake in the oven for 10-13 minutes or until the tops of the cookies get firm to the touch. You may begin to see a golden color on the tops of the cookies, if so take them out so that they don’t overcook.
- Let cool on the baking sheet for 3-5 minutes and enjoy warm or cooled!
