Minttens Sandwich Cookies

• Reynolds(R) Parchment Paper
• Your Favorite Sugar Cookie Recipe or Mix
• Red and green paste food colors
• 1 1/3 cups mint flavored baking chips
• 2 egg whites
• Ribbon

1. LINE 2 cookie sheets with Reynolds Parchment Paper; set aside.
2. PREPARE your favorite recipe for sugar cookies. Halve dough and tint with food colors.
3. PREHEAT oven following recipe. Roll out dough 1/8-inch thick between 2 lightly floured parchment paper sheets.
4. CUT OUT 48 cookies with a mitten cookie cutter. Place 12 cookies 1-inch apart on parchment-lined cookie sheets. Use mini cookie cutters to cut out decorations.
5. MELT mint baking chips in a microwave-safe bowl. Spread melted mint chips over cookies on the cookie sheets. Top each with another cookie cut-out. Place mini decorations on cookies. (To hold decorations in place, brush underside with egg whites beaten with a little water.) Repeat with remaining cut-out cookies.
6. BAKE 10 to 12 minutes or until lightly browned. Remove from oven; immediately make a small hole in each Mintten with a straw. Slide parchment with cookies onto a wire rack to cool. Tie two cookies together with ribbon to make a set.
