So this morning I decided to make some Halloween Sugar cookies for Ben to take to work and share with the boys on the flight line. Turns out I made 4.5 dozen cookies! It took forever to make and decorate!
Only 6 ingredients were used to make these simple cookies, which is not a lot.
This dough however, was not very sticky for some reason. It was really hard to roll out and cut because it was falling apart in my hand. I do not know if this is natural since I have never made home made sugar cookies before.
Taking the time to cut out each and every shape took so long, I spent about 1.5 hours total just on cutting out shapes, but I do have to admit that these pumpkins are super cute!
The bats came out really well too.
The ghosts were a little hard though, the tails kept coming off after pulling them off the counter.
Home made frosting, which by the way is super yummy! Made with shortening, vanilla, milk, and powdered sugar!
Icing all the cookies was simple and fun
Decorating was twice the amount of fun. I wish I just had better decorating skills. Maybe after time I will get better at this who decorating thing.
This is what 4.5 dozen sugar cookies look like once they were all decorated! I have to pack some away to save for my friends and family, even though the majority will go to Ben's unit for Halloween!
Hope you enjoy! :D
