Star of the Bar-B-Que Cookies!

Hey everyone! I wanted to try to make some fancier cookies that would be good for the summer holidays and think these are easy and fun!
Simply make dough in two (or more) different colors.
Roll out each color separately.
Using a big and small cutter, cut out the big cookie then using a smaller cutter cut out the middle.
 Remove the middle and carefully put it into a different colored cookie, gently press into place.

Notes:
  • Use a tried and true, nice handling cut out cookie dough. And if you have one, please share the recipe with me! The dough I used tasted great, but was not nice to work with, even after chilling well.
  • This is a bit of a labor of love, but I think a good dough recipe and chilled dough would really make a big difference.
  • You may find that a toothpick helps to remove the center cut out.
  • I used a Williams-Sonoma icing pen for the white, details HERE, can't recommend them enough!
Have a happy day:@)
