Ghost Cookies

So....Halloween is right around the corner...and I made some fun, cute, yet totally simple Halloween Cookies.  If you have followed my cookie journey over the years, you know that I am all about the Simple Cookie.  My cookie philosophy is..IT'S A COOKIE....A COOKIE THAT IS GOING TO BE EATEN....so while I want all my cookies to look cute and beautiful, I have no desire to spend hours and hours decorating them.

So...I always keep my cookies simple...and one way I do that is with STENCILS.  My best friend Melissa makes stencils...you can find her HERE.  Please check out her stencils, they are wonderful quality and I just LOVE them.

Ok...on to the cookies...I made ghosts and pumpkins, but today, I am only sharing the Ghosts with you!

I used THIS stencil on a simple  ghost shaped cookie, but I think

it would also be wonderful on any shaped cookie.

How adorable is this little ghost?  You can make one for yourself

using THIS stencil.

Both designs together.  For both of the cookies, I flooded them with 

white icing, then when they were completely dry, I stenciled on the 

design using a very stiff icing.  So simple....anyone can do it.

Why not give stencils a try sometime?  They are a real time saver and they

help you quickly create beautiful cookies.
