• Sprinkle flour onto the cutting board and roll out the dough to 2 inches thick
• Use the cookie cutter and cut your shapes
• Bake in the oven for 7-9 minutes or until slightly golden brown
• Place onto a wire rack to cool

 

 

Icing Directions:

• In a standing mixer, combine the egg whites, cream of tartar, vanilla, and powdered sugar and mix on medium speed until stiff peaks form, about 5-7 minutes
• Split icing into three bowls and get ready to add the food coloring into the bowls.
• Take out 4 TBSP of icing into one bowl adding several drops of brown food coloring. Mixing well.
• Remove another 6 TBSP of icing into another bowl adding several drops of green food coloring, mix well.
• Put the rest of the icing into a third bowl adding in several drops of orange food coloring. Stir to mix the color throughout the white icing.
• Scoop about a third of the orange icing into a piping bag with a #2 tip to outline the cookie.

 

 

• With the remaining orange icing add 1-3 TBSP of water (start with 1 TBSP first as you want it to be thick and runny) If the icing does appear to be “soupy” then add 1/4 cup of powder sugar to thicken it.
• Spoon some of the thinner icing onto the cookie, spread this icing on the cookie, except for the pumpkin stem) using a knife or a candy bottle.

 

 

• Allow this to dry for about 30 seconds.
• Using the cookie in the picture as an example add the detail work on the pumpkins with the piping bag of orange icing. Allow the detail to dry for about 5 minutes.

 

• Scoop the brown icing into a piping bag with a #2 tip.
• Scoop the green icing into a piping bag with a #2 tip.
• Add the brown icing for the stem and the green icing for the vines on the top of the pumpkin. (Refer to the picture of the cookies for an example)
• Allow the icing on the cookie to dry for 5-10 hours.
