Directions for Making Black Cat Cookies

It is important to follow the directions carefully if you want your black cat cookies to come out looking like cats.

Step One: Start by mixing your egg and butter in a mixing bowl with beaters. Add the gingerbread cake box mix and beat until firm.

Step Two: Roll dough into a ball. Wrap in plastic wrap and chill for at least an hour.

Step Three: Use a rolling pin to roll the dough out between two sheets of parchment paper. Using a tool that makes the dough perfectly even is super helpful in getting the cookies to bake proportionately.

Step Four: Line up the cookie cut outs on a baking sheet with a couple inches in between. Bake at 350 degrees for 7-9 minutes until edges are golden brown. Remove from oven and let cool completely.
