I made these for a bake sale and they were a HUGE hit. I used bright primary colors to grab attention. They were so fun to make and eat!

I don't like giving unfavorable reviews, but I have to say, this one just didn't do it taste-wise for us. They were really fun to make, and the kids really enjoyed shaping them. But the flavor was missing something. First, it wasn't sweet enough for our tastes. It also tasted (not texture, texture was ok) a bit doughy. On the up side, it was a fun activity to do with the kids.

OK, I do not like the taste of this recipe so I used the 'soft christmas cookie' recipe from this site and then used this color/swirl idea, which I think is great! Much fun!

I did not care for these. I consider myself a pretty good cook. These were time consuming and not worth it. I'm going to put some frosting on them in hopes I can salvage these.. but I'm definitely not making the again.

My girls really enjoyed making these cookies. It kept them busy for a good while but I do have to agree with others that they don't taste like much. After baking and tasting them I wish we would have sprinkled them with some sugar before we baked them. Maybe even mixing up some powdered sugar glaze might help too. They are very pretty to look at and the girls had a great time. Just for that reason they are great!!

This recipe was a real hit at my son's nursery school. The cookies are colorful and fun to make. I made the balls first and then chilled them and only used 3 colors. I don't find them very tasty - as mentioned before, it is more like a spritz cookie than a sugar cookie. But the final result is beautiful especially when sprinkled with a bit of sanding sugar.

These were great! I made them with my 4 year old son, they were fun to make and taste good too! I didn't use the sticks though, but they're still very cute!

These are really good. It's the same recipe as "The Fun Cookie Suckers" from this site. It's very time consuming but well worth the effort as they truly are pretty and kids love them. I found if I did most of the prep work to the dough like make all the balls for rolling before chilling the dough it makes it easier because the dough softens quickly which makes it difficult to coil, so this way I did a bit at a time and kept the rest in the fridge. Very nice cookie. THX.

I made these last night, and they are very good. Nice mild taste. They look festive! Others mention they are like sugar cookies. I think they are much closer in taste to spritz cookies. I cooked them so they were very lightly crisp on the edges, but chewy on the inside. Just the way we like them. Very filling, though. I can do some major damage on a bag of Chips Ahoy, but could only do 3 of these when my snack-o-meter dinged. Do not try and make these without a good supply of ice cold milk. You'll tank me for that tip later!
