Create-a-Scene Cookie Puzzle

Kids' imaginations can run wild with this fun "edible art" project!

Ingredients

• 1 roll (16.5 oz) Pillsbury® refrigerated sugar cookies
• ½ container (1 lb size) vanilla creamy ready-to-spread frosting
• Betty Crocker® decorating gels or food color

Directions

1. Heat oven to 350°F. Line 13x9-inch pan with foil. Cut cookie dough into 4 pieces. In pan, press dough evenly in bottom. Bake 15 to 20 minutes or until edges are golden brown. Cool completely in pan, about 20 minutes.
2. Using foil, lift cookie from pan; carefully remove foil. Place cooled cookie on large serving platter or foil-covered 14x10-inch sheet of cardboard. To create puzzle, use cookie cutters to cut a variety of shapes in baked cookie. Carefully remove shapes from background.
3. Divide frosting into several small microwavable bowls. Tint frosting as desired with food color. Microwave 1 bowl of frosting at a time for 10 seconds; stir until smooth.
4. Carefully frost and decorate cut shapes and background as desired. Let stand until set. Return shapes to puzzle.
