10 Halloween Cookies Anyone Can Make

So, if you’ve been over on the Facebook page lately, you’ve probably heard me whine about how I’m ready to move past Halloween for this year.  It was fun, but I’m ready for something other than witches, ghosts and goblins.  And, I’m out of Halloween blog posts…  No wonder I don’t usually commit an entire month to one theme.  I’m too A.D.D. for that, I get bored.  And with mere days left, why would I want to make something only to put it in storage?!

So, the boys and I made cookies… ’cause, well, I can put those away and not have to worry about them in the garage… just around my thighs.  And what’s a few extra pounds, swimsuit season is MONTHS away!  We opted for our go-to Chocolate Chip Cookies (just omit the pumpkin) and a bit of neon food coloring for a little fun.  We also put butterscotch chips in the orange ones, as well as chocolate chips.  We’ll be lucky if these last til November 1st.

In case you’re still feeling Halloween, but don’t want the commitment of a project to store, how about some of these cookies?  There are tons of fancy bakery cookies on pinterest, but I wanted ones that anyone could make.  Not just those of you that are culinary-inclined.  So, here they are… Halloween cookies anyone can make.

   Spider Cookies at Il Gattoghiotto.
This blog is in Italian, but Google can translate it for you.
And the photos give a pretty good idea of what to do.
Witch Hat Cookies at Craftily Ever After
Nutter Butter Ghosts at Bakerette
Monster Cookies at The Decorated Cookie
Easy Spider Cookies at Slap Dash Mom
Spooky Eyeball Cookies at The Idea Room
Black Cat Oreos at Party Pinching
Candy Corn Pinwheel Cookies at The Sweet, Simple Life
Acorn Cookies at The Hungry Housewives
Peanut Butter Spider Cookies at Half Baked Harvest
You could stick these adorable spiders on just about any cookie.
Which ones are your favorites?

I'm Krista. Ringleader here on While He Was Napping, wife to my handsome Mr. Right & momma to my THREE energetic boys, Big J (9), Little J (6) & Little N (4). We FINALLY added a beautiful little girl to our family last December.

I’m knee-deep in Tonka trucks & Thomas trains. I survive our crazy days with Vanilla Coke, Sonic slushies, sweet snuggles and little giggles. When I tuck them in tight & kiss them good night, I get a little time to create & just be me.
