Directions

1. 1
   Preheat oven to 325°F. Prepare 2 cookie sheets lining with parchment paper.
2. 2
   In a mixer, beat shortening and sugar. Add in egg and mix.
3. 3
   In a separate small bowl, stir baking soda into sour cream.
4. 4
   Alternate adding flour and sour cream into mixing bowl. Incorporate all for a nice soft dough. Put on the countertop.
5. 5
   Separate dough into 6 balls. (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.
6. 6
   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.
