To begin, preheat your oven to 350°F (180°C). In a large mixing bowl, cream together the butter and sugar until light and fluffy. Add in the egg and vanilla extract, mixing until well combined.
In a separate bowl, sift together the flour, baking soda, and salt. Slowly add this mixture to the butter mixture, mixing until a dough forms.
Divide the dough into two equal parts. In one part, add a few drops of black food coloring and mix until the dough is completely black. In the other part, add a few drops of orange food coloring and mix until the dough is completely orange.
On a floured surface, roll out the black dough to about 1/4 inch thickness. Use your Halloween themed cookie cutters to cut out shapes and place them onto a lined baking sheet. Repeat this process with the orange dough.
Bake the cookies for 10-12 minutes, or until the edges are slightly golden. Let them cool for a few minutes before transferring them to a wire rack to cool completely.
Once the cookies are completely cooled, get creative with decorating them! You can use icing, sprinkles, and other edible decorations to make them even more festive and spooky.
And there you have it, an easy and delicious Halloween cookie recipe that is sure to be a hit with everyone. These cookies are perfect for any Halloween celebration and can be customized with different colors and decorations to fit any theme. So have fun in the kitchen and enjoy these tasty treats with your loved ones. Happy Halloween!
