Preheat oven to 375°F. Spray baking sheets with cooking spray; set aside. Roll out dough to 1/4-inch thickness on lightly floured surface. Cut into desired shapes, using assorted 3-inch cookie cutters. Sprinkle with the remaining 1/4 cup granulated sugar. Place, 2 inches apart, on prepared baking sheets. Sprinkle with candied sugars, if desired.
