Add lemon extract and yellow food coloring to 1 dough piece in medium bowl; beat until well blended. Shape lemon dough into 6X1-1/2-inch log; flatten 1 side of log so that log has half-moon shape. Brush rounded side of log with egg white; sprinkle with yellow sugar until evenly coated. Wrap tightly in plastic wrap; freeze 1 hour. Repeat with second piece of dough, lime extract, green food coloring and green sugar. Repeat with remaining piece of dough, orange extract, orange food coloring and orange sugar.

4. Bake 9 to 11 minutes or until set. Working quickly, score segment lines on hot cookies. Cool on cookie sheets 2 minutes. Remove to wire racks; cool completely.
