- Chill the dough well.
- Remove one disk from the refrigerator.
- Roll dough out on a lightly floured surface to 1/8-inch thickness.
- Cut into 11/2-inch squares, then cut from each corner of the square almost to the center.
- Turn over every other cut point to the center and press gently, forming a pinwheel (or poinsettia).
- Sprinkle the center of each with red sugar.
- Repeat with the second disk of dough.
- Preheat oven to 350°F.
- Place the cookies on greased baking sheets and bake until very lightly golden, about 8 to 10 minutes.
