  • ½ cups Plus 2 Tablespoons Unsweetened Cocoa Powder

In large bowl, beat butter and powdered sugar on medium speed 1 minute until pale and fluffy. Beat in egg and vanilla. Stir in flour mixture until just combined. Shape dough into disc, then wrap in plastic wrap. Refrigerate at least 1 hour.

Heat oven to 350ºF. On lightly floured surface, roll out dough to ⅛-inch thickness. Use oval, egg or skull-shaped cookie cutter to cut dough into shapes. Space cookies 2 inches apart on parchment paper-lined baking sheets. Refrigerate until firm, about 15 minutes.

Outline cookie edges with icing, leaving small border. Fill in center with more icing, using toothpick to spread out icing. Decorate cookies with assorted candies, sprinkles, etc.
