Fruit Loop Cookies and Orange Icing image

I adopted this recipe from Recipezaar in February 2005. I made several changes based on the review posted by Jenna Marie. I'm really happy with the changes I've made to the recipe. These cookies are great with or without icing and would be perfect for a child's party.
