Jeweled Pomegranate Cookies

The best thing about icebox cookies is that you can make the dough days or even weeks in advance, stash it in your freezer until a need arises, and then just slice off as many cookies as you’d like. Perfect for feeding unexpected guests or sending off as gifts, this version is speckled with ruby red pomegranate arils for a pleasantly tart bite and subtle crunch. Always a crowd-pleaser, it’s also very versatile if you’d like to substitute any other sorts of dried fruits or nuts.
