Make a colorful (and edible) decoration for the children's table by filling a container with florist foam, sprinkle it with dragees, and then stick the flakes in the foam.
Beat the butter and shortening on medium speed with an electric mixer until fluffy; add the sugar, whisking well. Add the eggs, butter and vanilla, beating until smooth.Combine the flour and the following 3 ingredients; add to the butter mixture, mixing well.

Roll each ball in colored sugar or jim-jim in separate bowls, pressing lightly if necessary to coat the balls. Place on non-greased baking sheets, 2 inches apart. Insert craft sticks about 1 inch thick into each cookie to make them resemble a lollipop.Bake at 350 ° C for 10-11 minutes or until cooked through. Allow to cool for 2 minutes on baking sheets; transfer the cookie flakes to a wire rack to cool completely.
