Ingredients

1 pouch (1 lb 1.5 oz) Betty Crocker™ sugar cookie mix
1/3 cup butter, melted
1 egg
1 tablespoon Gold Medal™ all-purpose flour
2 teaspoons pumpkin pie spice
1 1/4 teaspoons ground nutmeg
1 teaspoon vanilla
8 hard round butterscotch candies, unwrapped, crushed
8 hard round cinnamon candies, unwrapped, crushed

Steps:

In medium bowl, mix all ingredients except candies with spoon. Cover; refrigerate 1 hour.
Heat oven to 350°F. Line cookie sheet with cooking parchment paper. On floured surface, roll dough 1/8 inch thick. Cut with 3 1/2-inch pumpkin-shaped cookie cutter. Place cutouts about 2 inches apart on cookie sheet. With small cookie cutters or paring knife, cut out eyes, nose and mouth in jack-o'-lantern style.
Using 1/4-teaspoon measure, place crushed candies in each cutout hole, filling as full as possible, making sure candies touch dough on all sides of each hole.
Bake 8 to 9 minutes or until candy is melted and cookies are set. Cool until candies harden, about 4 minutes. Remove from cookie sheet to cooling rack; cool completely, about 30 minutes.
