Stir into above mixture; mix well. Divide dough into 2 equal parts. Add color to one half (either red or green can be used). Roll each color into strips about 4 inches long. Twist together like a rope; shape the top. Place on cookie sheet. Bake at 375 degrees for 15 minutes. You can add 1 teaspoon peppermint extract if you like (to the green half).
