Ingredients
1/2 cup jellybeans (assorted flavors)
1/4 cup granulated sugar
1 tablespoon cornstarch
Instructions
Place the jellybeans in a resealable plastic bag and seal. Use a rolling pin or heavy pan to crush them into small pieces, about the size of sprinkles.
In a small bowl, combine the crushed jellybeans, sugar, and cornstarch. Stir until evenly mixed.
Sprinkle the topping over freshly baked cookies while still warm, or store in an airtight container for up to 2 weeks.
Tips
For a more intense color, separate jellybeans by color before crushing.
Use this topping on sugar cookies, shortbread, or vanilla wafers.
If topping is too sticky, add a little more cornstarch.
