Directions
Cut each sugar cookie dough roll in half.
Form each into a ball and flatten into a disk.
Wrap in plastic wrap and refrigerate about 45 minutes until firm.
Draw and cut out hand shapes of family members to use as guides for making cookies.
Preheat oven to 400℉ (200℃).
(check temperature on cookie dough package.)
Working with one dough ball at a time on floured board, roll out to about ¼ inch thick.
Use enough flour so dough isnt sticky and can be easily removed to cookie sheet.
Place paper hand cut-out on dough and trace with a sharp knife, making cookie hands.
Place on cookie sheets and bake until light golden brown.
Remove from oven and let cool on rack completely before decorating.
Repeat with all cookie dough.
Decorate using icings and candies.
You can even write family members names on each.
