With it being Patriots verse Falcons, it was only appropriate to make a dessert that represented both these teams. These sugar cookies are overly sweet like most cookies, which is actually one of their selling points. My office devoured all of these cookies! I only baked 2/3 of the dough, so I still have a third in the freezer! So many cookies!
