Watermelon Jello Cookies

Ingredients

• 3½ cups of flour
• 1 teaspoon of baking powder
• 1½ cups of butter or margarine, softened
• 1 cup of sugar
• 2 (3oz.) packages of Watermelon Jello 
• 1 egg
• 1 teaspoon of vanilla
• non-stick cooking spray

Instructions

1. Preheat oven to 400 degrees F. Spray several cookie sheets with cooking spray. This recipe makes about 50 to 60 cookies!
2. In a large bowl, mix the flour and baking powder and set to the side.
3. In a separate large bowl, use an electric mixer to beat the butter until it is creamy.
4. Add the sugar and one package of the Jello, then continue to mix until well blended and fluffy.
5. Mix in your egg and vanilla.
6. Then gradually add in the flour and beat until all is well mixed.
7. Roll the dough into 1-inch balls and place 2 inches apart on the baking sheets. I spray my hands with a little bit of the cooking spray so the dough doesn't stick.
8. Use a glass to flatten each cookie (I also sprayed the bottom of the glass with the cooking spray) and then generously sprinkle the other package of dry Jello mix onto the top of each cookie.
9. Bake for 8 to 10 minutes or until the edges are slightly browned.
10. Let cool slightly before serving, or cool completely before storing in an air-tight container.
