Ingredients:
- 2 cups all-purpose flour
- 1/2 teaspoon baking powder
- 1/4 teaspoon salt
- 1/2 cup unsalted butter, softened
- 3/4 cup granulated sugar
- 1 large egg
- 1 teaspoon vanilla extract
- Orange and black food coloring
- Edible googly eyes
- Halloween-themed cookie cutters
Instructions:
Mix the flour, baking powder, and salt together in a bowl with a whisk
Mix the butter and sugar in a different bowl until the mixture is light and fluffy
Add the egg and vanilla extract and mix them in well
Mix the dry ingredients into the wet ingredients one at a time until a dough forms
Split the dough in half
Add orange food coloring to one half and black food coloring to the other
Knead the dough until the colors are spread out evenly
Each color of dough should be wrapped in plastic wrap and put in the fridge for at least an hour
Warm the oven up to 350F 175C and put parchment paper on a baking sheet
On a floured surface, roll out the chilled dough until it is about 1/4 inch thick
Scary shapes can be made with cookie cutters that are themed for Halloween
Place the shapes on the baking sheet that has been prepared
After the oven is hot, bake for 10 to 12 minutes, or until the edges are just beginning to turn golden
As soon as you take the cookies out of the oven, while they're still soft, press edible googly eyes onto them
Let the cookies cool for a few minutes on the baking sheet before moving them to a wire rack to cool all the way
Once the cookies are completely cool, you can add more frosting or other edible decorations to make them look even better
At your party, serve these scary Halloween cookies and watch them go fast!
