HOLIDAY SUGAR COOKIES
I add a hint of lemon to these delightful sugar cookies. For make-ahead convenience, freeze the dough up to three months, then thaw in the fridge before baking and decorating them. -Katie Koziolek, Hartland, Minnesota

Steps:
- Heat oven to 375°F. Spray 36 mini muffin cups with cooking spray.
- In large bowl, mix cookie mix, softened butter and egg with spoon until soft dough forms. Stir in 1/4 cup candy sprinkles. Shape into 36 (1 1/4-inch) balls. Place in mini muffin cups. Press indentation in center of each with end of wooden spoon.
- Bake 8 to 10 minutes or until light golden brown. Immediately repeat indentation into center of each cookie with end of clean wooden spoon to make 1-inch opening, cleaning off end with paper towel when needed. Cool in pan 20 minutes. Loosen edges with small knife if needed. Remove to cooling rack. Cool completely, at least 30 minutes.
- In small bowl, place half of the frosting. Tint red with food color. Place large piping bag fitted with medium star tip on its side. Using large icing spatula, spoon remaining vanilla frosting so it covers half of the length of side of piping bag. Carefully spoon red tinted frosting on top.

Tips:
- For a fun and festive touch, decorate the sugar cookie cups with sprinkles, colored sugar, or mini chocolate chips before baking.
- If you don't have a mini muffin tin, you can also use a regular muffin tin and fill each cup about halfway full.
- To make the sugar cookie cups ahead of time, bake them according to the recipe and then let them cool completely. Store the cooled cups in an airtight container at room temperature for up to 3 days, or in the freezer for up to 2 months.
- When you're ready to fill the sugar cookie cups, let them come to room temperature first. This will help to prevent the filling from cracking.
