Preparation steps
For the cookies, Cut the butter into small pieces. Combine the flour, baking powder, powdered sugar, salt, egg yolks, orange zest and butter. Knead everything together quickly into a smooth dough. Cover with plastic wrap and refrigerate for 30 minutes. Roll out the dough 2 to 3 mm (approximately 1/8 inch) thick on a lightly floured surface. Cut out cookies a pumpkin-shaped cookie cutter about 6.5 cm (approximately 2 1/2 inches) in diameter.
Place the cookies on a parchment-lined baking sheet. Bake in preheated oven at 200°C (gas mark 3-4, fan: 180 degrees) (approximately 400°F) for 12 to 15 minutes. Let cool completely on a wire rack. Lightly beat the egg whites. Stir in the powdered sugar until smooth, adding a few drops of water if necessary. Stir in the orange food coloring. Evenly spread the cookies with the orange icing. Decorate with sprinkles. Draw a pumpkin outline with the green decorating icing.
