Directions for Making Marble Cookies
Another idea is to make Marble Christmas Chocolate Chip Cookies.  To do that, randomly add pieces of red, green, and white cookie dough to the food scale until it weighed 2 ounces.  Sometimes we use more of one color than the others. There is no right or wrong combination. The more random the pieces of dough, the prettier the cookies will be.
