In honor of Halloween, I slaved away last night and made Halloween cookies. After I got started, I realized I only had three gel colors left… blue, purple and bright yellow. So they are not quite as colorful as I was planning, but there was just no way I was going to the store for food coloring.
Decorating cookies brought me back to when I worked as a Pastry Chef. It seemed there was always a reason to decorate cookies or cakes. Anyway, this is a really great cookie recipe. Its a bit soft when rolling out, so you must chill it well, but the flavor is very good. This recipe is adapted from Cookies Unlimited by Nick Malgieri.
