Halloween Sugar Cookies

Directions

1. Cream together sugar, brown sugar, shortening, and butter in a large bowl. Add eggs and cream.
2. In a medium bowl, combine flour, baking powder, and salt. Gradually mix into the wet ingredients. Shape dough into a ball, wrap, and chill for at least 3 hours.
3. Preheat oven to 375°F. Line a baking sheet with parchment paper.
4. Roll out the chilled dough to about 1/4 inch thickness. Cut into shapes and place on the prepared baking sheet.
5. Bake for 8-10 minutes, until edges are lightly browned. Let cool slightly before transferring to a wire rack.
6. For the icing, mix icing sugar, milk, corn syrup, and vanilla until smooth. Add food coloring and adjust consistency as needed. Decorate cookies.
