Glowing Halloween Pumpkin Cookies

Heat oven to 350 degrees F. Line 2 cookie sheets with parchment paper or foil (If using foil, smooth out all wrinkles).

Break up cookie dough into a large bowl. Add flour and pumpkin pie spice, mixing well. On a lightly floured surface, roll out half of the dough at a time to 1/8-inch thickness. Refrigerate remaining half of dough.

With small sharp knife or cookie cutter, cut out 4-inch pumpkin shapes. Place 2 inches apart on 1 paper-lined cookie sheet. Cut out facial features as if from a jack-o-lantern. Continue with remaining dough.

Meanwhile, combine crushed candies. Place 1/4 to 1/2 teaspoon crushed candy in center of each cut-out area in each cookie, making sure candy touches edges of cookie (Do not mound candy in centers of cutouts).

Bake at 350 degrees F for 12 to 18 minutes or until edges of cookies are light golden brown, and candy is melted and fills cut-out areas of cookies.

Cool for 2 to 5 minutes on cookie sheets or until candy is hardened. Carefully remove cookies from cookie sheets and place on wire racks.

Cool for 15 minutes or until completely cooled. Repeat with remaining half of dough and candy.
