Milk Chocolate Stuffed Jack-O-Lantern Cookies
Ingredients:
1 1/2 cups (3 sticks) salted butter, softened
1 1/4 cups light brown sugar, packed
1 tablespoon pure vanilla extract
2 large eggs, at room temperature
4 1/2 cups all-purpose flour
1 teaspoon baking soda
1 teaspoon cinnamon
1/2 teaspoon ginger
1/4 teaspoon nutmeg
1/2 teaspoon salt
12 oz milk chocolate, melted
Directions:
Prepare the Dough:
In a large mixing bowl, cream together the softened butter, brown sugar, and vanilla extract until light and fluffy, about 3-5 minutes.
Add the eggs one at a time, mixing until well combined.
Add flour, baking soda, cinnamon, ginger, nutmeg, and salt. Mix until the dough forms a ball.
Roll and Cut the Cookies:
Generously flour your work surface and divide the dough in half.
Flatten each half into a disk and roll out the dough to about 1/4-inch thickness.
Using a pumpkin-shaped cookie cutter, cut out the cookies. Transfer the cookies to a parchment-lined baking sheet.
