Ingredients

  1. 1 cup (2 sticks) Challenge Butter
  2. ¾ cup sugar
  3. 2 ½ cups all-purpose flour
  4. red and blue food coloring
  5. powdered sugar

Directions

  1. Step 1

    To make the cookie dough, start by creaming the butter. Then gradually add sugar and flour. Beat until light and fluffy.

  2. Step 2

    Divide the dough into three equal portions. Add red food color to one portion and blue to another. Keep one portion uncolored.

  3. Step 3

    Center each portion of dough into its own gallon-sized plastic food storage bag and chill dough anywhere from 20 minutes to several days.

  4. Step 4

    Preheat oven to 350°F. Cut out stars with 3-inch star shaped cutters, and bake at 350°F for 10 minutes or until edges are slightly browned.

  5. Step 5

    Remove cookies from oven and dust them with powdered sugar, either with a shaker or by gently shaking them in a bag with powered sugar.
