Halloween Cookies
Ingredients
- 8 ounces unsalted butter softened
- 1 cup granulated sugar
- 1 large egg
- 1 1/2 teaspoons vanilla extract
- 3 cups all-purpose flour
- 2 teaspoons baking powder
- Sugar cookie frosting as needed
- Halloween-themed cookie cutters
- Halloween sprinkles optional
Instructions
- In a large mixing bowl, cream together the softened butter and granulated sugar until light and fluffy, about 3 minutes.
- Add the egg and vanilla extract to the creamed mixture and beat until fully incorporated.
- In a separate bowl, whisk together the flour and baking powder. Gradually add the dry ingredients to the wet mixture, mixing until a dough forms.
- Turn the dough onto a floured surface and roll out to about 1/4 inch thickness. Use Halloween-themed cookie cutters to cut out shapes.
- Place the cutouts on a parchment-lined baking sheet and bake at 350°F for 8-10 minutes or until the edges are just starting to turn golden.
- Allow cookies to cool completely before decorating with sugar cookie frosting and optional Halloween sprinkles.
