Halloween Ghost Smores Recipes

HALLOWEEN GHOST S'MORES

Steps:

• In food processor, place flour, brown sugar, cinnamon, baking soda and butter. Cover; process with on-and-off pulses until mixture looks like coarse meal. Add honey, milk and vanilla. Cover; process with on-and-off pulses just until dough forms. Divide dough in half; shape each half into a ball and flatten slightly. Wrap in plastic wrap; refrigerate at least 1 hour.
• Heat oven to 350°F. Line cookie sheet with cooking parchment paper. Unwrap 1 portion of dough on lightly floured surface; roll to 1/4-inch thickness. Cut with 3 1/2-inch ghost-shaped cookie cutter. Place on cookie sheet. Repeat with remaining dough.
• Bake 13 to 15 minutes or until set. Remove from cookie sheet to cooling rack. Cool completely.
• Set oven control to broil. Place 12 of the cookies, bottom sides up, on ungreased cookie sheet; top each with 2 marshmallows. Broil with tops 8 inches from heat 10 seconds or until toasted. Immediately top each with 1 chocolate bar piece and a second cookie, bottom side down; gently press together. Serve immediately.

HALLOWEEN GHOST COOKIES

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.
