Holiday Pinwheeled Cookies
These cookies take time but are worth every second. I make them for Christmas, Valentines (as pictured here), and Saint Patrick’s day.
Years ago I cominbined two of my favorite cookie recipes to get this one:
In each bowl we mixed:
3/4 c soft butter (or soy butter for those with milk allergies)
3/4 c sugar
1 tsp vanilla
2 eggs
1/2 tsp almond extractFood coloring if desired
2 tsp baking powder
2 1/2 c flour
Once mixed. Chill for a few hours so the dough is easy to work with. Roll out part of each colored dough. Then neatly stack one layer of each on top of the other. Tightly roll into a log.

Using floss cut apart cookies.
Roll in 1/4-1/2 cup sugar (if you want colored sugar just add a drop of coloring and mix into sugar. One drop goes a long way.) Bake for about 8 minutes at 350 degrees.
