This recipe was designed for Halloween but would work for any holiday or event with a change of cookie cutters. The kids will LOVE this! This will make 6 "assembled" cookies out of the purchased but you can always share the "pieces". These are really fun to make with the kids and/or grandkids

Steps:
- In a medium bowl knead flour into sugar cookie dough. Divide dough into 6 (or more) portions.
- On an ungreased cookie sheet, roll each portion into a 5-inch square. Note: It's easier to use the counter or whatever you normally roll dough on.
- Press a well-floured 3- to 4-inch Halloween cookie cutter into the square (use smaller cutters, if desired). Carefully remove cookie cutter without removing dough.
- Using a table knife, cut outside portion of square into large puzzle pieces.
- In a small mixing bowl beat egg yolks and water. Divide mixture among 3 or 4 small bowls.
- In each bowl, add 2 to 3 drops of liquid food coloring or desired amount of paste food coloring in desired color; mix well.
- Brush dough puzzle pieces with different colors of egg yolk mixture. Apply to cookie dough with small clean paintbrush. If mixture thickens while standing, stir in water, one drop at a time.
- Bake in a 350 degree F oven for 7 to 8 minutes or until bottoms of cookies just start to brown and centers are set.
- While still warm, carefully recut pieces with the knife. Trim edges as needed. Transfer cookies to a wire rack; cool completely.
