HALLOWEEN PARTY CUTOUT COOKIES
I've been making these Halloween cookies for about 40 years-first for my children and now my grandchildren and all their friends, too. I make about 20 trays a year to give away to trick-or-treaters. -Pamela Shank, Parkersburg, West Virginia

On a lightly floured surface, roll each portion of dough to 1/4-in. thickness. Cut with floured 2-1/2-in. Halloween-shaped cookie cutters. Place 2 in. apart on ungreased baking sheets. Bake 8-10 minutes or until edges are light brown. Remove from pans to wire racks to cool completely., In a large bowl, beat confectioners' sugar, shortening and enough water to reach spreading consistency. Tint frosting and decorate as desired.
