Jello Cookies

🧂 Ingredients

• 17.9 oz snickerdoodle cookie mix

  (one packaged 17.5-ounce bag, omit the cinnamon sugar packet)
• ½ cup butter

  (salted, melted)
• 1 large egg

  (at room temperature)
• 3 tablespoon green flavored gelatin powder

  (½ of a 3-ounce package)
• 3 tablespoon blue flavored gelatin powder

  (½ of a 3-ounce package)
• 3 tablespoon red flavored gelatin powder

  (½ of a 3-ounce package)
• 3 tablespoon yellow flavored gelatin powder

  (½ of a 3-ounce package)
• 1 cup sugar

Instructions

• 1 Preheat your oven to 350°F (175°C/Gas Mark 4) and line a baking sheet(s) with
  parchment paper or silicone baking mat.
• 2 In a large bowl, combine 17.9 oz snickerdoodle cookie mix, melted ½ cup butter,
  and 1 large egg.
• 3 Split the mixed cookie dough into 4 small bowls and then gently work the
  different colored gelatins into the cookie dough (3 tablespoon green flavored
  gelatin powder, 3 tablespoon blue flavored gelatin powder, 3 tablespoon red
  flavored gelatin powder, and 3 tablespoon yellow flavored gelatin powder). You
  can wear gloves, but using your hands to work the Jello into the dough is
  easiest.
• 4 When done, you should have cookie dough in 4 different colors (and flavors).
• 5 Set a small shallow dish aside with 1 cup sugar as well as some small bowls with
  the excess jello powder to roll the cookie dough into as you portion out the
  dough.
• 6 Portion the dough out into 2 tablespoon-sized balls (use a cookie scoop if
  desired) and then roll them into balls. Roll the dough balls in the matching
  jello powder followed by the sugar then transfer them onto your prepared baking
  sheet(s).
• 7 Leave 2 inches of spacing between each cookie for spreading, then bake at 350°F
  (175°C/Gas Mark 4) for 10-13 minutes. Once the tops begin to set or any color
  starts to show on the bottoms or tops of the cookies, remove them from the oven.
• 8 Leave the baked cookies on your baking sheet for 5 minutes to finish baking,
  then serve them warm or transfer to a wire cooling rack to cool completely
  before storing.
