Scarecrow Cookies
Prep Time: 25 Minutes
Yields: 10 Cookies
Ingredients:
1 container (8.4 oz) Betty Crocker® cloud white Cupcake Icing
10 creme-filled vanilla sandwich cookies
5 baked whole-grain wheat crackers, cut in half
1 tablespoon sugar
10 large gumdrops
10 pieces candy corn
1 tube (0.68-oz) Betty Crocker® black decorating gel
Instructions:
1. Spread 1 slightly rounded teaspoon frosting on each cookie. For each scarecrow cookie, cut half cracker into shreds with sharp knife; place shreds on 2 sides of each frosted cookie to resemble hair.
2. Sprinkle work surface with sugar. Place 1 gumdrop on its side on sugar; flatten with rolling pin into 1/8-inch-thick triangle. Fold up one edge to form hat brim; place on cookie, trimming to fit if necessary.
3. Place 1 piece candy corn on cookie to resemble nose. Use black decorating gel to make eyes, mouth and hatband.
Tip:
When making these with children, make one model scarecrow cookie to help them understand what to do.
