Instructions:

  1. Prepare Dough:

    • In a medium bowl, cream together the shortening, unsalted butter, and granulated sugar using a hand mixer on high speed for approximately 2 minutes until light and fluffy.
    • Add the egg and vanilla extract, and beat for an additional 1 minute until well combined.
    • Stir in the baking powder, ginger, black pepper, cinnamon, salt, and all-purpose flour on low speed just until the dough comes together.
    • Divide the dough into two equal portions, flatten each piece slightly to about 1-inch thickness, wrap tightly with plastic wrap, and refrigerate for approximately 1 hour to chill.
  2. Roll and Cut:

    • Preheat the oven to 375Β°F (190Β°C).
    • Roll out each portion of chilled dough on wax paper to approximately 1/8-inch thickness.
    • Use your favorite cookie cutters to cut out desired shapes. For Halloween, spooky shapes like bats, pumpkins, headstones, and owls are perfect!
  3. Bake:

    • Place the cut-out cookies onto a parchment-lined baking sheet and bake in the preheated oven for 10 minutes, or until the edges are lightly golden brown.
    • Remove from the oven and allow the cookies to cool completely on a wire rack before decorating.
  4. Make the Glaze:

    • In a small pot, heat the Nutella, milk, and confectioners’ sugar over low heat until combined and slightly warm, stirring continuously.
  5. Decorate:

    • Spread each cooled cookie with the Nutella glaze and decorate as desired with jimmies, sprinkles, mini chocolate chips, or Halloween candy for a festive touch!
    • Allow the decorated cookies to set on a wire rack until the glaze has hardened.
  6. Storage:

    • Store the Nutella Spiced Sugar Cookies in an airtight container at room temperature for up to several days, or freeze them (unglazed) for up to 6 weeks for longer-term storage.

These Nutella Spiced Sugar Cookies are not only delicious but also versatile, making them the perfect treat for any occasion during the fall season! Enjoy the warm flavors of spices and Nutella in every bite, and get creative with your decorations to make them extra special for Halloween or Thanksgiving gatherings! πŸŽƒπŸ
