Halloween Cookies!

Yum! I love these cookies! My family usually makes them for Christmas or Valentine's Day, but I've started making them around Halloween too because I got some fall-shaped cookie cutters.


If they had the right shapes I'd probably make them for St. Patrick's Day, President's Day, Labor Day, or pretty much any day!

This time I tried making them kind of pumpkin-ish, so I put pumpkin pie spices in the frosting. It's SO GOOD! Want a bite?

I am salivating...I would love a bite. I LOVE sugar cookies :) Yours look like perfection!

Well, I don't mean to brag but they are perfection! I give the credit to my mom and sisters who taught me how to make them. The key is rolling out the dough THICK so you have soft lovely cookies instead of thin crunchy ones. And you just bake them until they're barely done. I don't let them get brown on the bottom hardly at all. (And yes, these are the kind I made at Christmas last year.)

Yep, that looks pretty good, Holly. I'm just about to go make some frosting for mine. I never thought of adding the spices but that's a good idea. I'll try a little sprinkle! ♥
