Preparation

Step 1

Heat oven to 375*. In a medium bowl, stir cookie mix, butter and egg until dough forms.

Shape dough into 24 balls. Place 2 inches apart on ungreased cookie sheets.

Bake 8-10 minutes or until edges are light golden brown. Cool for 1 minute; remove to a cooling rack. Cool completely, about 15 minutes.

Frost cookies. Add coconut to a 1 quart resealable food storage bag. Add 2-3 drops of food color, shaking bag to blend color. It may be necessary to add 1-2 tsp. of water to help disperse the color evenly or additional food color until desired color is reached.

Sprinkle each cookie with coconut; top with 3 candy eggs.
