Instructions
1 Cut Out Cookies & BakeAfter rolling out your cut out sugar cookie dough (I prefer 1/2" thick), use a small circle cookie cutter (around 2.5" in diameter) or spice cap to cut out cookies. You can also use a larger circle and normal sized M&M's for a larger version of these!Tip: To make the perfect cut out sugar cookies, browse my The Ultimate Guide to Cut Out Sugar Cookies before starting! 2 Let Cool Then FrostOnce baked, let cookies cool completely to room temperature before frosting. I used my Sugar Cookie Buttercream Frosting recipe to frost these (dyed a light orange) but you can use your favorite frosting recipe or store-bought can! 3 Step 3: DecorateOnce frosted, press on 2 mini chocolate chips for the eyes (or M&M's, if preferred), 2 orange mini M&M's for the cheeks, and a brown M&M for the mouth! I like to cut some of the brown M&M's in half to make normal mouths and then mix in some whole M&M's for a more "BOO!" expression!Tip: When cutting M&M's in half, use a sharp knife and press straight down. You will naturally break some and not get the perfect half-circle, but will get some good ones after a few tries!View original recipe
