Preparation

Place 1 roll (16.5 oz) Pillsbury™ sugar cookie dough, 1 egg yolk, and 1/2 cup all-purpose flour in large bowl. (DO NOT EAT RAW COOKIE DOUGH AFTER COMBINING WITH EGG YOLK AND FLOUR.) Beat with electric mixer on medium speed until smooth.

Bake chilled cookies 12 to 14 minutes or until light brown. Cool completely before frosting.

In medium bowl, beat 3 tablespoons softened butter, 3 cups powdered sugar and 1 tablespoon vanilla with electric mixer on medium speed. Add milk, 1 tablespoon at a time, until desired frosting consistency. Frost cookies. Decorate with sprinkles. Store loosely covered at room temperature.
