Ingredients

  • 17.5 ounce bag sugar cookie mix
  • ½ stick unsalted butter softened to room temperature
  • 4 ounces cream cheese softened to room temperature
  • 1 large egg
  • 3 Tablespoons red Jello powder
  • 3 Tablespoons orange Jello powder
  • 3 Tablespoons green Jello powder
  • 3 Tablespoons yellow Jello powder
  • ½ cup granulated sugar

Instructions

  • Preheat the oven to 350 degrees and prepare a large baking sheet with parchment paper.
  • In a large mixing bowl, combine sugar cookie mix, butter, cream cheese and egg.
  • Using an electric stand or hand mixer, combine until the dough is formed. It will be crumbly.
  • Separate the bowl into 4 smaller bowls (like cereal bowls). Add 3 Tablespoons of Jello powder to each of the bowls.
  • Using your hands, rub the powder into the dough, pinching and combining until smooth. The color will blend into the dough, dying it evenly.
  • Use a cookie scoop to compact and scoop the dough from the bowls. Round into smooth balls in between the palms of your hands and place on the baking sheet.
  • Be sure to place the cookie dough 2 inches apart from one another. You will likely cook 2 sheets.
  • Bake cookies for 10-11 minutes.
  • When done, allow the cookies to cool on the baking sheet for 2 minutes before transferring to a cooling rack. Serve warm or at room temperature.
