Glittery Pumpkin Cookies

Everywhere I look I see glittery pumpkins. I have seen several how to make glittery pumpkin tutorials and it made me want to run out and buy a lot of glitter and give my pumpkins some shimmer. Then, I opened my box of sprinkles and saw the orange disco dust sparkling before my eyes. I knew I had to make glittery pumpkin cookies.

Glittery Pumpkin Cookies thebearfootbaker.comI wanted a cookie that looked like it belonged with any Fall decor and I think these turned out perfect.

Supplies for Glittery Pumpkin Cookies:

Brown 15 Second Icing
Orange 15 Second Icing
Orange Disco Dust-Or you can use sprinkles
Margarita Cookie Cutter
Mini Pumpkin Cutter

Glittery Pumpkin Cookies thebearfootbaker.comI know you have seen me use this margarita cutter before and you will probably see me use it again. It makes a perfect cake stand and candlesticks. I might think of some other way to use it before the holidays are over. Anyway, cut the glass and the pumpkin so the pumpkin cookie will fit together perfectly. Then bake.
