Preheat oven to 350 degrees F. Beat together butter and egg. Add cookie mix and flour and mix until a dough forms. The mixer may be crumbly, so you may need to use your hands to form a dough.
Flour a large surface and rolling pin and roll dough out to a ¼” thick slab. Use a rainbow cookie cutter and a cloud cookie cutter to cut our cookies. Place on a cookie sheet spaced at least 1.5” apart.
Bake for 10-12 minutes. Let cool completely.
Divide the frosting into six bowls. Mix in food coloring to dye the frosting into rainbow colors. Leave one frosting white for the clouds.
Fill piping bags with frosting and start piping arches on the rainbow cookies. We started with the smallest purple arch and piped outwards.
Pipe white frosting around the edge of the cloud cookies and fill in the middle. Use a small spatula or spoon to create swirls.
