Cookies



I saw this idea in Country Living and thought it was pretty cute.
I used my favorite cut out recipe, found a candy corn cookie cutter and dipped the ends in melted chocolate and vanilla dipping chocolate.

The following cut out recipe was given to us on for a wedding gift.
It has a great flavor, doesn't need to be refrigerated and the texture is just right. 

INGREDIENTS
1 cup shortening
3/4 cup sugar
1 egg
1/4 tsp. salt
2 1/4 cup flour
1/2 tsp. baking powder
1 tsp. vanilla
1 tsp. milk
Combine shorting and sugar, add egg-sift dry ingredients and add to first mixture.  If too stiff add more milk.  Roll out and cut with cookie cutters.  Bake at 375 degrees for 10 - 12 minutes.
