(keep flour handy. you made need to sprinkle as you go.) taking one at a time, add 4 drops of food coloring and mix till the color is incorporated well. after you have all 6 balls done, break them each into 6-8 small balls. place all of the balls on the table and bunch them together. they should be pressing against each other. take a rolling pin and roll the balls flat into one big piece, just so the colored balls can overlap. use a cookie cutter and cut shapes. bake for 10 minutes and enjoy!
