Ingredients

  • 1 pkg 17.5 oz Betty Crocker Sugar Cookie Mix
  • 1 stick butter
  • 1 egg
  • 1 can white frosting
  • gel food coloring
  • colorful candies such as M&Ms Jelly Beans, or Jelly Bird Eggs

Instructions

  • Preheat oven to 350 degrees F. Place liners into mini muffin pan. 
  • In medium bowl, combine sugar cookie mix, butter, and egg. Drop by tablespoonful into 24 lined mini muffin cups (should put a little over 1 tablespoon of dough in each mini muffin cup.)
  • Press dough evenly into muffin cups. Use the back of a round-backed measuring spoon or a melon baller to make a shallow well in the center of each cookie.
  • Bake cookies about 10 minutes until slightly browned. Cool completely.
  • Divide can of white frosting into four small bowls. Add 1-2 drops of gel food coloring into each bowl and stir to make your desired shades. 
  • Spoon each color of frosting into separate zip-top baggies. Snip the tip of the baggie and pipe the colored frosting into the middle of each cooled cookie. 
  • Press colorful candies into the top of each Sugar Cookie Cup.
