  • 1/2 teaspoon baking powder

  6. Drop rounded tablespoons of dough onto the prepared baking sheets, about 2 inches apart.
  7. Bake for 10-12 minutes, or until the edges are lightly golden brown.
  8. Let the cookies cool on the baking sheets for a few minutes before transferring them to a wire rack to cool completely.
  9. Once cooled, decorate the cookies with Halloween-themed frosting and sprinkles to create spooky or cute designs.

Notes
