Ingredients
- 1 box Betty Crocker® SuperMoist® white or yellow cake mix shopping list
- 1/3 cup shortening shopping list
- 1/3 cup butter or margarine, softened shopping list
- 1/2 teaspoon vanilla shopping list
- 1 egg shopping list
- Liquid or paste orange food color, as desired shopping list
How to make it
- Heat oven to 375°F (350°F for dark or nonstick cookie sheets). In large bowl, beat all ingredients with electric mixer on medium speed about 1 minute or until thoroughly mixed.
- Divide dough in half. On lightly floured surface, roll each half of dough 1/4 inch thick using cloth-covered rolling pin. With 2 1/2-inch cookie cutters, cut into desired shapes, cutting out eyes, nose, etc., if desired, using sharp knife. On ungreased cookie sheets, place shapes.
- Bake 6 to 8 minutes or just until set (centers will be soft). Cool 1 minute. Immediately make hole in tops of some cookies, using end of plastic straw; trim any cut edges with sharp knife to straighten. Remove from cookie sheets to cooling racks. Cool completely.
- Tie ribbon or yarn through holes to hang. Hang ornaments on tree branches anchored in a pot or on Halloween tree (available at craft stores). Decorate remaining cookies as desired.
