Step-by-Step Instructions for Magical Spiral Cookies
- Preheat your oven to 375°F (190°C). In a mixing bowl, beat the butter and powdered sugar together for 3-5 minutes until light and fluffy.
- Incorporate the eggs, milk, vanilla extract, and almond extract into the butter-sugar mixture and mix until well combined.
- Whisk together the flour and salt in a separate bowl. Gradually add this to your wet ingredients, stirring until a soft dough forms.
- Divide the dough into three equal parts. Color one with purple gel food coloring, one with black gel food coloring, and leave one uncolored.
- Roll out the black and white dough into rectangles, stack them together, and roll them tightly to form a unified piece.
- Roll the purple dough into a rectangle and sprinkle decorations over it before forming it into a log with the black-and-white dough.
- Roll the log in sprinkles, wrap it in plastic wrap, and refrigerate for at least 1 hour.
- Slice the chilled log into rounds about ¼-inch thick and place them on a prepared baking sheet.
- Bake the cookies for 10 minutes or until the edges are lightly golden, then allow them to cool on a wire rack.

Notes
Chill the dough for sharper shapes and vibrant colors. Use gel colors instead of liquid for texture preservation.
