1 1/2 c Sugar
2 Eggs
1/4 c Milk
2 ts Vanilla
2/3 c Cocoa

1/2 ts Salt

1 c Powdered sugar
2 tb Butter or margarine; soften
4 ts Milk

In a large bowl, beat butter, sugar, eggs, milk and vanilla until well
blended. Stir together flour, cocoa and salt; add to butter mix, mixing
until well blended. Refrigerate dough 1-2 hours or until firm enough to
handle. Heat oven to 350~. Lightly grease cookie sheets. Shape dough into
1″ balls. Place on cookie sheets. Press thumb gently in center of each
cookies. (You may need to coat finger with sugar for indentation to
remain). Bake for 10-12 minutes or until set. Cool slightly; remove from
cookie sheets to wire rack. Cool completely. Spoon about 1/4 tsp orange
filling in each thumbprint. Decorate with green filling to look like stem
of a pumpkin.

ORANGE AND GREEN FILLING: In a small bowl, combine powdered sugar, softened
butter, milk and vanilla. Beat on high until smooth. Remove scant 2 TB of
filling. Tint this with green food color; set aside. Add freshly grated
orange peel to remaining icing and use red and yellow food coloring to make
orange.

GHOST COOKIES: Make icing and omit food coloring and orange peel. Decorate
cookies to look like ghosts.
