These fireworks cookies are so simple to make, and are SO delicious. Also known as tie-dye cookies on the internet, fireworks cookies are made by laying down stripes of colored icing, and dragging a toothpick back and forth to create a fun pattern.
There are a few methods for these cookies online, however we decided to create a shortcut version… they are just as delicious, and will save you that extra bit of time.
