Rimming leaf-shaped cookies makes for a pretty yet EASY option for a fall cookie collection.

Coloring the dough will cut the decorating time way down.

Cut out the leaf shapes and bake as usual.

Outline the cookie with whatever color glaze you prefer.

On a paper plate or rimmed dish, cover the wet glaze with color coordinating sanding sugar.

Shake off the excess sugar.

Another rimmed effect........outline the cookies with glaze and allow them to dry overnight.

Mix almond extract with some gold luster dust and paint it on the dried outlines.

Oh the possibilities......so many......but so little time. ;)
