Bake 6 to 8 minutes or until light brown. Cool 2 minutes; remove from cookie sheet. Cool completely. Prepare Frosting. Generously frost cookies with orange frosting; frost stems with green frosting. Draw toothpick through frosting to resemble pumpkin. Frosting: Mix powdered sugar and margarine. STir in orange juice concentrate. Reserve 1/3 cup frosting; tint with green food color for stems. Tint remaining frosting with 2 drops yellow food color for every 1 drop red food color to obtain desired shade of orange. Ghost cookies: Cut cookie dough into ghost shapes. Use milk instead of orange juice for the frosting, and omit the food colors. Use chocolate chips or slices of black gumdrops to decorate the cookies. Note: Give the pumpkin cookies faces by decorating with candy corn, or any of your favorite candies.
