Cookies:

Wrap dough and refrigerate 2-3 hours. Working with half of the fought at a time on floured surface, roll dough until 1/8” thick. Cut into pairs of desired shapes using 3” cookie cutters. Place 1” apart on ungreased cookie sheet. Bake 7-9 minutes. Immediately cut 1 of the cookies of each pair in half vertically. Cool on sheet 1 minute; cool completely on wire rack.
Glaze:
Combine sugar and egg whites in medium bowl until smooth. Separate into smaller bowls and color glaze with desired shades. Pour glaze over back of cookies; let set. Spread line of glaze down cut edge of cookie. Press “half” of cookie to middle of “whole” cookie; let set. Repeat with remaining “half” of cookies by attaching them to the middle of the cookie on the opposite side. Using glaze to attach, decorate with M&M’s.
