Make a complete batch of the keto sugar cookie recipe as per the written recipe.

Weigh the total cookie dough and divide it into three equal parts.

Wrap one third of the dough in plastic wrap or parchment and refrigerate.

To one bowl of dough, add red gel food coloring and knead until the color is evenly distributed.

To the other bowl of dough, add green gel food coloring and knead until the color is evenly distributed.

Refrigerate all three colors of dough for a minimum of three to four hours or overnight if possible.

Roll out one color of dough between sheets of parchment paper to form a rectangle, using painter sticks or chopsticks for even thickness.

Trim the dough if necessary and place the rolled rectangle on a cookie sheet, then refrigerate.

Repeat the rolling process for the other two colors, ensuring they are the same size as the first rectangle.

Layer the three rectangles on top of each other, with the colored layers on the outside, and refrigerate for 30 to 60 minutes to firm up.

Roll the layered dough into a cylinder using the parchment paper to guide the roll, applying pressure to avoid air pockets.

Wrap the rolled dough in parchment and refrigerate for another 30 to 60 minutes to firm up.

Preheat the oven to 300°F (150°C).

Unwrap the chilled dough and cut into 1/4-inch thick pinwheels using a sharp knife.

Place the pinwheels on a parchment-lined cookie sheet, leaving space between them.

Bake in the preheated oven for 8 to 10 minutes, being careful not to overbake.

Allow the cookies to cool on the cookie sheet until they reach room temperature before transferring them to a cooling rack.
