Stained Glass Cookies

Ingredients

  • 1 (16 oz.) pkg. tube sugar cookie dough
  • 3/4 cup Schnucks flour, for sprinkling
  • 15-20 multi-color hard candies, unwrapped
  • 1 egg white
  • 1/3 cup coarse sugar sprinkles
  • 1 tbsp. water

Instructions

  1. Bring dough to room temperature, then lightly knead on a floured surface until soft enough to work with, 2โ€“3 minutes. Divide dough into equal halves.
  2. On lightly floured parchment paper, roll out each half with a lightly floured rolling pin to 1/4 inch thickness. Lightly dust with flour and cover each half with parchment. Set one of the halves on top of the other. Cover with plastic wrap, transfer carefully to a sheet pan and refrigerate 1โ€“2 hours.
  3. Meanwhile, separate candies by color and put each in its own resealable plastic bag. Crush with rolling pin into fine pebble-size bits.
  4. Preheat oven to 350 degrees. Line 2โ€“3 sheet pans (depending on the size of your pans) with parchment. Carefully transfer the top dough half to a cutting board. Using a medium-large cookie cutter, cut dough into shapes. Using a small cookie cutter in the same or similar shape, cut out centers. Re-roll leftover dough and cut as above. Repeat with remaining half of chilled dough.
  5. In a small bowl, whisk together egg white with 1 tablespoon water. Arrange cookies on prepared sheet pans about 3 inches apart. Brush with egg wash and immediately top with sugar sprinkles.
  6. Fill cookie centers about three-quarters full with crushed candy and and freeze 30 minutes. Remove from freezer and bake on middle oven rack until candies are melted and cookie edges are golden, 12โ€“13 minutes. Let cool on sheet pans about 15 minutes, then transfer to wire racks. Store cookies at room temperature, covered, for up to 7 days.
