We all need something a little sweet at the tailgate! And these were a hit during Awful Tailgating Karaoke! (Videos may or may not be published in the future, pending those checks clearing the bank!) I’m going to assume that they were a hit because the sugar cookie bars are just that awesome, not because everyone was way too drunk to know better. I mean, how else do you get people up there singing?

Personally, I only sing one song and that’s the fight song. And most would consider that more yelling than actual singing. Fortunately for all of you!

Rep Your Team Colors on the Sugar Cookie Bars

Without food coloring, the icing will be a nice clean white color. But you can add food coloring to the icing to match your team’s primary color! Then add sprinkles in the secondary color!

Georgia Tech’s colors are white and gold. So I didn’t need to experiment with the proper colors for my icing. I just stuck with the white and added gold sprinkles. If you get the standard grocery store 2.7 oz plastic container of sprinkles, you’ll use the whole bottle in this recipe.
