Description
A recipe for Halloween Cut-Out Cookies

Ingredients

• 1 (18-ounce) roll refrigerated sugar cookie dough
  
• 2/3 cup all-purpose flour
  
• 2 (14-ounce) bags M&M'S Milk Chocolate Candies for Halloween
  
• 1 (16-ounce) can vanilla frosting
  
• Black food coloring
  
• 6 large colored craft sticks
  
• 1 (6-inch) flowerpot
  
• 1 Styrofoam square
  
• 6 (12-inch) strands colored raffia

Preparation
1. Preheat oven to 350°F. Knead together cookie dough and flour until smooth.

2. Roll out dough to 1/4-inch thickness. Using large Halloween cookie cutters, cut out 6 cookies and transfer to cookie sheet. Gather up dough scraps and re-roll, if necessary.

3. Slide a craft stick underneath each cookie and press into dough. Bake cookies until golden brown, about 12 to 15 minutes. Transfer cookie sheet to wire rack.

4. When cookies are cool, divide vanilla frosting between 2 bowls. Using food coloring, color half of frosting black.

5. Spread frosting over cookies, and decorate with candies (eyes, noses, etc.). Let dry, about 30 minutes.

6. Fill flowerpot with Styrofoam. Tie each craft stick with raffia. Press craft sticks into Styrofoam. Sprinkle remaining candies over Styrofoam.
