Recipe: Checkerboard Sugar Cookies

Thanks!

Using a combination of this Sugar Cookie Recipe, tinted green, and the Food Network Chocolate Sugar Cookie Recipe I assembled these checkerboard cookies.

After chilling the dough, roll it out into the shape of a rectangle and cut the two doughs into equal strips. 

Alternating strips and connecting both the strips and the different layers with egg wash,  form the bar of dough.  

Chill again and then slice in 1/4 inch slices before baking at 350' for 10-12 minutes.  Cool on a cookie sheet.  

You could also simply use the Sugar Cookie Recipe, divide the dough in half and tint it two different colors.  

These cookies freeze well.
