Cut the twisted dough ropes into cookie-sized pieces and place them on a baking sheet lined with parchment paper. Add sprinkles and decorative sugar on top of the cookies for a festive touch. Bake the cookies in the preheated oven according to the specified cooking time, or until the edges are lightly golden. Once baked, allow the cookies to cool on the baking sheet for a few minutes before transferring them to a wire rack to cool completely.
