How To Make Halloween Frosted Sugar Cookies
During the fall season, I enjoy baking some Halloween theme' d cookies to take to various parties or to just keep on hand at my home.
This recipe is simple to make but does take some time since you will be cutting out the cookies, and then frosting them with some orange or black frosting. You can pick up Halloween designed cookie cutters at your local store for about $1.00 a piece. If desired, you could purchase some sprinkles to further decorate your cookies.
Basic Cookie Recipe:
1 cup butter, softened
1 1/2 cups granulated sugar
2 eggs
1 teaspoon vanilla extract
1/8 teaspoon table salt
1 tablespoon cold milk
3 cups all purpose-flour
1 teaspoon baking powder
1 teaspoon table salt
In a medium-sized bowl, combine the flour, baking powder and 1 teaspoon salt, set aside. In a large-sized bowl cream together the softened butter with the granulated sugar. Slowly add in the eggs, vanilla extract, 1/8 teaspoon salt and milk. Stir in the flour mixture until all ingredients are combined. Cover the bowl and refrigerate for 6 hours.
Lightly dust a dough board with flour. Roll out your cookie dough until it is 1/8" thick. You want your dough to be pretty thin. Using Halloween theme cookie cutters, cut out your cookies and place them onto a cookie sheet that has been lined with a nonstick silicone baking mat or a sheet that has been very lightly greased. Bake in a 350 degree oven for 7-8 minutes. Let cookies cool completely before icing them.
Cookie Icing:
2 cups confectioner's sugar
2-3 tablespoons milk, divided
1 teaspoon vanilla extract
orange and black food color
Mix the confectioner's sugar, milk and vanilla extract in a medium sized bowl. Add additional 1 tablespoon of milk until desired spreading consistency is obtained. Separate the mixture into 2 small dishes and tint one of them with orange and one with black food coloring. Spread frosting on cooled cookies and let dry. Once the cookies are completely done, store them in an airtight container.
