Ingredients:  
1 3 oz. box jello, any flavor
1 c. powdered sugar
1 c. butter or margarine, softened
2 1/4 c. flour
1/4 tsp. salt
sprinkles (Optional)

Icing:
1 tbsp. jello
2 c. powdered sugar
Directions:
Directions:
Heat oven to 350 degrees. Open the box of Jello and remove 1 tbsp. of the dry gelatin, saving it to make the icing.

Mix together remaining Jello, powdered sugar, and butter or margarine. Stir in flour and salt.

Form the dough into 1-inch balls and place on ungreased cookie sheets. Bake until the cookies hold their shape, but are not brown, about 8 minutes. Let cool on the cookie sheets for a few minutes before moving them to completely cool them.
To make icing, combine the 1 tbsp. Jello with 3 tbsp. hot water. Let this stand for a few minutes and then stir in 2 c. powdered sugar until the icing is a smooth consistency.

Spread the icing on the cooled cookies, and then add sprinkles if desired. If the icing is a little runny, it is okay. You want it to be a little on the runny side. When it dries it will harden.
