HALLOWEEN GHOST COOKIES
All you need for these ghost cookies is a cookie cutter in the shape of a tulip and then turn it upside-down - if you don't have that one, you can easily freehand the ghost shapes. These are great giveaways for trick-or-treaters and a nice alternative to all the candy.

Steps:
- Beat butter in a bowl with an electric mixer until creamy. Add 1 1/2 cups confectioners' sugar gradually, beating until light and fluffy. Beat in egg and 1 teaspoon vanilla extract.
- Combine flour, baking soda, cream of tartar, and salt in a second bowl. Add flour mixture to the creamed butter mixture and mix to combine. Wrap in plastic wrap and chill in the refrigerator for at least 1 hour.
- Preheat oven to 400 degrees F (200 degrees C).
- Dust a work surface with flour and roll out dough into a thin circle. Cut out tulip shapes; if your tulip cookie cutter has a stem, cut the stem off with a knife, so you have a stemless tulip shape. Arrange cut-out cookies on ungreased baking sheets.
- Bake in the preheated oven until lightly browned, 6 to 8 minutes. Remove from baking sheets carefully and transfer to wire racks. Cool completely, about 15 minutes.
- Stir 1 cup confectioners' sugar and milk together in a small bowl until smooth. Beat in corn syrup and 1/4 teaspoon vanilla extract until icing is smooth and glossy. Add more corn syrup if icing is too thick.
- Spoon icing into a piping bag with a small plain tip. Pipe icing around the edge of each cookie to create a border. Fill in the middle completely with icing. Stick 2 chocolate chip cookies into the wet icing for the eyes. Let cookies stand until icing dries, about 1 hour.

- Make Cookies: Cream together butter and sugar until light and fluffy, 2-3 minutes. In a medium sized bowl, whisk together flour, baking powder, and salt. Set aside. To the butter mixture, add the egg, milk, vanilla extract, and almond extract. Scrape down sides of the bowl, and beat on medium-high until fully incorporated, about 1 minute. Scrape down sides of the bowl again, and add dry ingredients. Mix on low until flour is fully incorporated, about 1 minute.
- Dump cookie dough onto a clean work surface, and using your hands, shape dough into a 1-inch thick disc. Wrap in plastic wrap and refrigerate for 1 hour.
- Preheat oven to 375°F. Line 2 baking sheets with parchment paper. Roll dough out to 1/4-inch thickness. Use cookie cutter to cut out ghost shapes and place on baking sheets, rerolling scraps as needed to cut out additional cookies. Bake until the tops just begin to take on color, about 9 minutes. Remove to a wire rack to cool completely, about 45 minutes.
- Make Royal Icing: With the whisk attachment, whip egg whites, vanilla, and powdered sugar on low until combined, and then on medium-high until very glossy, about 6 minutes. Add water, 1/2 teaspoon at a time, to reach the consistency of toothpaste (the whisk should barely leave the shape of a peak in the frosting when lifted). Scoop 1/2 cup of the royal icing into a piping bag fitted with a #2 piping tip or with a very small hole cut at the end of the piping bag. To the remaining royal icing, add more water, 1/2 teaspoon at a time, until the icing slowly falls back into a smooth surface when the whisk is lifted (rather than creating a firm peak). You want this icing to still form a peak when the whisk is lifted, but the peak slowly dissolves into the remaining icing. When consistency is reached, transfer to other piping bag.

HOW TO MAKE HALLOWEEN GHOST COOKIES - EASY KID-FRIENDLY ...

- First things first, you will need pre-made cookie dough from your local grocery store. You can also make your own cookie dough by following these instructions:You will need:2-1/2 cups butter, softened2 cups sugar2 large eggs, room temperature1/4 cup 2% milk2 teaspoons vanilla extract7-1/2 to 8 cups (30 to 32 oz.) all-purpose flour4 teaspoons baking powder1 teaspoon saltIn a large bowl, cream butter and sugar until light and fluffy for about 5 minutes.Beat in the eggs, milk and vanilla.In another bowl, whisk 7-1/2 cups flour, baking powder and salt. Gradually beat the ingredients into the creamed mixture, adding more flour if necessary.Divide the dough into four 2-cup portions.Cover and refrigerate the dough until needed.Once you have your cookie dough, either store-bought or home made, you can now make ghost shapes with a halloween cookie cutter or simply by using a butter knife.
- Once you have the ghost-shaped cookie, it's time to bake them! Put your cookies in the oven and bake them to your liking. Generally, cookies are baked in a moderate oven at 350º F (175º C) for 8 to 12 minutes, depending on the size of the cookie. For chewy cookies, allow them to cool on the baking sheet for 3 to 5 minutes before transferring to a cooling rack.Now that it is baked and has cooled down, you can start decorating it! Roll out the white fondant dough, cut it into the same shape as the cookie and place it on the cookie. To stick it, wet your fingertips with water and dab lightly on the cookie, so the layer of white fondant will completely stick.If you're planning a halloween party for tweens, we encourage you to also check out our article on that topic.
- After placing the white base of the ghost made with fondant, it's time to make the face with black fondant. This step is very simple, because you only have to make three balls with the black fondant. Two for the eyes and a slightly larger one for the mouth.To make the ghost's mouth, squash the ball into an oval shape. The more oval the mouth, the scarier the ghost cookie for Halloween will be!
- And... voilà! You have your halloween ghost cookies all ready! These cookies are a favourite for children once halloween comes around. They are simply to make but very pleasant to the eye and the stomach. Try them out and let us know how it goes in the comments below.
