Ingredients:



1package (18 ounces) refrigerated sugar cookie dough

1cup prepared cream cheese frosting

Blue Food coloring

Blue crackling candy or blue sugar









Preparation:





1.Grease cookie sheets. Remove dough from wrapper; divide in half. Wrap 1 dough half in plastic wrap and refrigerate.2.Roll remaining dough half to 1/4-inch thickness on well-floured surface. Cut into zigzag lightning shapes about 1/2-inch wide and 5-1/2 inches long, dipping knife in flour as needed. Place cutouts 2 inches apart on prepared cookie sheets. Repeat with remaining dough. Refrigerate cutouts 1 hour.3.Preheat oven to 350°F. Bake cookies 5 to 7 minutes or until firm and edges are lightly browned. Cool on cookie sheets 2 to 3 minutes. Remove to wire racks; cool completely. 4.Just before serving, combine cream cheese frosting and Food coloring in medium bowl; stir until well blended. Spread about 1 tablespoon frosting on each cookie. Sprinkle crackling candy on each cookie.







Note:

Do not frost and decorate cookies in advance. Crackling candy begins to lose its popping quality when it is exposed to air and moisture.
