Get into the Halloween spirit with these easy and fun-to-make cookies! The orange and black swirls add a spooky touch to your treats.
Ingredients: 2 1/4 cups all-purpose flour. 1/2 teaspoon baking powder. 1/4 teaspoon salt. 3/4 cup unsalted butter, softened. 1 cup granulated sugar. 1 large egg. 1 teaspoon vanilla extract. Orange and black food coloring.
Instructions: In a bowl, whisk together the flour, baking powder, and salt. In another bowl, cream together the softened butter and granulated sugar until light and fluffy. Beat in the egg and vanilla extract until well combined. Gradually add the dry ingredients to the wet ingredients, mixing until a dough forms. Divide the dough in half. Add orange food coloring to one half and black food coloring to the other. Mix until the colors are well incorporated. Wrap the colored doughs separately in plastic wrap and refrigerate for about 30 minutes. Preheat the oven to 350F 175C and line a baking sheet with parchment paper. Take small portions of each colored dough and gently roll them into ropes of equal length. Twist the ropes together and shape them into Halloween-themed designs like pumpkins, ghosts, or spiders. Place the shaped cookies on the prepared baking sheet. Bake in the preheated oven for 10-12 minutes, or until the edges are lightly golden. Let the cookies cool on the baking sheet for a few minutes before transferring them to a wire rack to cool completely.
