Cutout Sugar Cookies with Royal Icing are where your inner baker meets your inner artist – especially when we're talking Halloween-style. Start with a buttery, melt-in-your-mouth sugar cookie that's rolled out and cut into all your fave spooky shapes. We’re talking ghosts, witches, pumpkins, and maybe even the odd black cat! Once baked to golden perfection, these cookies turn into your blank canvas, just begging for some color and pizzazz. Now comes the fun part: decorating! With royal icing in tow, you can go wild. Think vibrant oranges, ghostly whites, eerie purples, and midnight blacks. The icing sets glossy and smooth, giving you that oh-so-satisfying professional look, even if you’re just doing this for kicks in your kitchen. They're perfect for Halloween parties or just a night in, watching your favorite scary movies. So, why not roll up your sleeves and get a little spooky in the kitchen? Trust me, these treats will make even the grumpiest goblin giggle with glee.

Ingredients

  • 1 cup (2 sticks) unsalted butter, very soft
  • 1 1/2 cups Imperial Sugar Extra Fine Granulated Sugar
  • 1 large egg
  • 2 teaspoons vanilla extract
  • 2 1/2 cups all-purpose flour*
  • 1/2 teaspoon salt
  • 1/2 teaspoon baking soda
  • 1/2 teaspoon cream of tartar
  • Royal Icing
  • Halloween Sprinkles

*Spoon & Sweep method: Use a spoon to fill measuring cup with flour until required amount is obtained. Scooping measuring cup directly into flour bag will firmly pack flour resulting in too much flour required for recipe.

Directions

  1. Preheat oven to 350°F.
  2. Beat butter until very light and creamy. Add sugar and continue mixing until light and fluffy. Add egg, vanilla and salt and beat until very well combined.
  3. Sift flour, baking soda and cream of tartar together and add in one step to above. Mix until dough forms. Do not overmix.
  4. Press dough about 1/2 inch thick onto a plastic food film lined cookie sheet and place in the refrigerator for 30-60 minutes or overnight.
  5. Roll dough on evenly sugared kitchen towel 1/4 inch thick. Cut into shapes and place on parchment or lightly buttered cookie sheets.
  6. Place in oven and bake until very pale and edges are very light golden, about 9 minutes.
  7. Prepare royal icing while cookies cool. Tint/color royal icing based on your cookie shapes and decorate.
