I got this recipe from my mother and my favorite cookbook, Betty Crocker's Cookbook. These beautiful cookies are always a hit at parties because they look like little bonbons. These cookies are great to make for children, and it's easy to let them help out.

Steps:
- Preheat the oven to 375˚F.
- Beat Blue Cookie Mix, 2 tablespoons butter, and 2 tablespoons water in a medium mixing bowl with a hand mixer until dough forms. Repeat with Purple Cookie Mix and remaining 2 tablespoons of butter and water.
- Freeze both doughs for 20 minutes.
- Roll each batch of chilled dough into a 12-inch log; place, side by side, on a floured work surface, then tightly twist logs together. Roll to form rope.
- Break off 6 rectangles of the white chocolate bar, then break each small rectangle in half. Reserve the remaining white chocolate bar for later use.
- Form dough into 12 balls, using about 1 tablespoon of dough for each ball; flatten each ball into 2-inch round. Place 1 square of white chocolate on the center of each round. Mold dough around the chocolate to completely enclose chocolate; place on a parchment-covered baking sheet.
- Bake 12-13 minutes or until puffed in the centers and set around the edges. Cool for 5 minutes before transferring cookies to a cooling rack.
- Microwave reserved white chocolate bar in microwaveable bowl on high for 1 minute or until completely melted, stirring after 30 seconds. Drizzle the chocolate over warm cookies; top with pink sprinkles.
- Enjoy!

Tips:
- To make your cookies extra colorful, use a variety of food coloring gels. You can also add sprinkles or edible glitter for a festive touch.
- If you don't have a cookie scoop, you can use two spoons to drop the dough onto the baking sheet. Just be sure to space them evenly apart.
- Bake the cookies for 10-12 minutes, or until they are set around the edges but still soft in the center. Overbaking will make them dry and crumbly.
- Let the cookies cool completely before frosting them. This will help the frosting to set properly.
- If you want to make the cookies ahead of time, you can freeze them unfrosted for up to 2 months. Just be sure to thaw them completely before frosting.
Conclusion:
Galaxy cookies are a fun and easy way to add some color and excitement to your next party or gathering. They're also a great way to get kids involved in the kitchen. With a little creativity, you can create your own unique galaxy cookies that are sure to impress your friends and family.
