* (2 cups loosely packed) Children will love these-they are fun to make
and to eat. Adults will also find them irresistible. Preheat oven to 375.
In large bowl, with mixer at low speed, beat egg yolks and milk until
well blended. Add flour, sugar, butter, vanilla and salt; beat ingredients
until just mixed. Increase speed to medium and beat 2 minutes, occasionally
scraping bowl. Divide dough in half.
On floured pastry cloth, with lightly floured stockinette- covered
rolling pin, roll one dough half 1/8-inch thick. With 2 1/4-inch
fluted-edged cookie cutter, cut dough into rounds; with 1/2-inch round
cutter, cut out centers from half of rounds. Reserve the dough scraps.
Using a pancake turner, place rounds 1/2-inch apart on un- greased
cookie sheets; bake at 375 8-10 minutes until lightly browned. With pancake
turner, remove cookies to wire racks to cool completely.
Repeat cutting and baking with second half of dough, rerolling scraps.
Prepare frosting: In the bowl of an electric mixer, place all frosting
ingredients (except food color) and beat at low speed for 2 minutes. Scrape
sides of bowl and continue beating at high speed for 6 minutes. Divide
frosting into thirds and tint with food color. On bottom side of cookie
without a hole, spread teaspoonful of either green, pink or yellow
frosting; top with a cookie with a hole in it to make a "sandwich." Repeat
with remaining cookies and frosting. (Use any leftover frosting for graham
crackers or cupcakes.) Yield: about 42 sandwich cookies. Larry
