Halloween has always been a very fun time around our house. Planning what to wear for costumes, sometimes starting weeks early sewing clown costumes or hunting at the Goodwill store for just the right accessories. Decorating the house to prepare for the many Trick or Treaters that would soon be banging on the door. This year I decided to make some Pumpkin Spice Halloween Cookies and Halloween Cake Pops. The recipe I used is one of my favourite sugar cookie recipe flavoured with pumpkin spice and decorated with Royal Icing.
