Ingredients

• 1 roll Pillsbury™ refrigerated sugar cookies
• 3 tablespoons all-purpose flour
• 2 cups powdered sugar
• 1/4 teaspoon vanilla
• 1/8 teaspoon almond extract
• 2 to 4 tablespoons milk
• Food color, if desired
• Candy sprinkles, if desired

Directions

• 1 Heat oven to 350°F. In large bowl, break up cookie dough; thoroughly work in flour. Work with half of dough at a time, refrigerating remaining dough until needed.
• 2 On floured work surface, roll dough 1/4 inch thick. Cut with floured 2 1/2- to 3-inch holiday-shaped cookie cutters; place 1 inch apart on ungreased cookie sheets. Repeat with remaining dough.
• 3 Bake 9 to 12 minutes or until cookies are set and edges just begin to brown. Cool 1 minute; remove from cookie sheets. Cool completely, about 10 minutes.
• 4 In small bowl, mix powdered sugar, vanilla and almond extract. Add enough milk until smooth and desired spreading consistency. Stir in food color until well blended. Spread on cookies; sprinkle with candy sprinkles. Let stand until icing is set, about 15 minutes. Store between sheets of waxed paper in tightly covered container.
