In a large bowl of a stand up mixer with a paddle attachment add all the ingredients and mix well together (I know that is weird but it works just fine, everyone in the pool!!) Transfer dough to plastic wrap and place in the refrigerator for at least one hour.

Preheat oven to 350F. Grease cookie sheets and set aside. On a lightly floured surface and working with half the dough roll out to 1/4" thick. With floured cookie cutters cut out gingerbread men and lay carefully onto the prepared sheets. Reform dough into a ball and continue to roll out and cut out gingerbread men. Bake 8 min. until lightly browned. Remove from pan and let cool on racks.

Break the heads off and make bloody necks on the body and head with the red icing. Make x's for the eyes and create a sad mouth. Let the cookies dry before storing.
