What a fun holiday!!! I found a spooky tree at a local hobby shop and decided to make some cookies to hang from it. This is a tradition my parents did when I was a child. They did several different trees through the year for corresponding holiday treats.
I baked a 4" sugar cookie with a whole for hanging. I frosted them with smooth frosting and then piped on the gauze for the mummy and added sugar eyes. The spider web is first frosted then while the frosting is still wet, you pipe several circles and using a toothpick pull the lines out from the center making the web pattern. The spider cookie is frosted and then I added a fondant spider.
The cookies are hung on the tree using twist-ties bent in an S shape to make the cookies easy to get off the tree.
