Making monogramed cookies are easy - here is the recipe and the directions:
1 cup white sugar
1 egg
1 cup of shortening
1 teaspoon vanilla extract
2 cups all-purpose flour
1 teaspoon each baking soda, baking powder, salt
2 teaspoons cinnamon
1 cup canned pumpkin
White cockie icing - use the icing that comes in a small squeezable tube.
Preheat oven to 350 degrees. In a large bowl, cream together sugar, egg, shortening, and vanilla.
Sift together flour, baking soda, baking powder, salt, and cinnamon. Stir into the creamed mixture, then stir in pumpkin.
Spoon dough onto greased cookie sheets.
Bake for 12 minutes, then cool.
Once cool, write the first letter of each guests' name on each cookie with the icing.
When the icing has set, place each cookie in its own cellophone bag tagged with your monogram and a thank you note. Tie it all up with a coordinating ribbon.
