My Notes:

  • I used half of this dough for this candy cane cookies and used the other half for sugar cookies.
  • Take small sized dough and make thin ropes as the cookies tend to grow while baking.
  • I used red rose liquid color to get that perfect cookie color.You can even use red powdered food color.
  • Do not be tempted to bake more, the cookies will become hard.Just take out when it starts to turn golden at the edges,thats the right time to  take out.
  • Chilling the dough is a must.I took some 4 balls from each color then refrigerated the rest of the dough.Likewise once I shaped few cookies,placed them in a tray and refrigerated it.

    hi sharmi,

    one more doubt, after making the basic dough how much time do we need to refrigerate it? And if we are using food colour powder, can we add it to the dough after refrigerating for the 1st time?
