POINSETTIA PINWHEEL COOKIES
I must make 30 different kinds of cookies during the Christmas season-many to give away as gifts. Judging from the comments I get, these pretty pink poinsettias with a hint of cinnamon flavor are not just my own personal favorite!-Patricia Eckard, Singers Glen, Virginia

Steps:
- In a large bowl, cream butter and confectioners' sugar. Beat in egg and food coloring. Combine flour and salt; gradually add to the creamed mixture. Stir in red-hots. Divide dough in half; wrap in plastic. Refrigerate for at least 1 hour or until firm., On a lightly floured surface, roll out one portion of dough into a 12x10-in. rectangle. With a sharp knife or pastry wheel, cut dough into 2-in. squares. Place 1 in. apart on lightly greased baking sheets. Cut through dough from each corner of square to within 1/2 in. of center. Fold alternating points of square to center to form a pinwheel; pinch gently at center to seal. Repeat with remaining dough., Bake at 350° for 7-9 minutes or until set. Remove to wire racks to cool completely. Combine the confectioners' sugar and milk. Pipe 1/2 teaspoon frosting in center of each cookie; top with red-hot.
