Ingredients:
1 cup salted butter softened (no substitutes - must be butter)
1/2 cup sugar
2 1/2 cups all-purpose flour
1 teaspoon vanilla
1/8th teaspoon cinnamon
Colored Frosting http://www.christineiscooking.com/2011/11/buttercream-frosting-oamc.html
chocolate chip for the eye
candy corn for the nose
Piping bags for the frosting
1 hand (or hand shaped cookie cutter)
Directions:
(1) Cream butter and sugar; add the vanilla and cinnamon and gradually add the flour. When the dough becomes crumbly - start mixing the remaining flour in with your hands. This will make the dough come together.
(2) On a lightly floured surface roll out the dough to 1/4-in. thickness. Cut with hand shaped cookie cutters or trace your own hand and remove to your cookie sheet with a butter knife. If the dough becomes too soft to work with refrigerate it until cool and continue.
(3) Cook on ungreased baking sheets at 300 degrees for 20-25 minutes until lightly browned. Remove to wire racks to cool.
(4) Decorate
