What’s better than baking some spooky cookies to complete the Halloween experience?

These cookies are very versatile as the cookie cutter can determine for what holiday you could bake these. On Halloween, a cookie cutter in the shape of a man or circle will work perfectly, as you can add white frosting to make a skeleton or ghostly cookies. Here are the ingredients and directions on how you can bake Halloween cookies.
