LOCATION

Directions

  • 1 Heat oven to 375°F. In medium bowl, stir together cookie mix and cocoa. Add butter and egg; stir until soft dough forms.
  • 2 On floured surface, roll dough to 1/4-inch thickness. Cut with 5-inch gingerbread man cutter. On ungreased cookie sheet, place 1 inch apart. Gather dough scraps; reroll until all dough is used.
  • 3 Bake 7 to 9 minutes or until cookies are just puffed and tops are dry. Cool 2 minutes; remove from cookie sheet to cooling rack. Cool completely, about 15 minutes.
  • 4 Spoon frosting into reasealable freezer plastic bag; partially seal bag and cut 1/4-inch hole in 1 bottom corner. Or use decorating bag with flat tip with 1/4-inch-wide opening (#44). Gently squeeze bag to pipe frosting on cookies for bandages. Attach jelly beans for eyes; use black gel to make pupils in eyes. Store cookies in airtight container.

EXPERT TIPS

Expert Tips

Cookies make great party favors. Slip each cookie into a clear bag, tie with a colorful ribbon and add a tag with a message like "Boo!" Pile them in a basket by the door.

When making these fun Halloween cookies, cut the dough to move the arms up or down to create action.

@kctalent That's surprising because even if you were to 3X each ingredient in turn you would still get a cookie. Might try allowing the mixture to firm up in the fridge for 30min before rolling out.
