I love Halloween! It’s the perfect time to dress up and have fun! And with Halloween right around the corner I wanted to share with you what we will be giving out to all the kids that will be trick or treating at our house! These cute mini cookies will be more of a treat than a trick! Don’t you think? I made two different batches of cookies: a batch of cute bats and another of spooky ghosts. I wanted the kids to be able to choose which one they like best. Which one do you think will be their favorite one?
I enjoy opening the door and seeing all the kids dressed up in their Halloween costumes! It reminds me of when I was a kid. I remember having so much fun the month before Halloween! I would tell my mom what I wanted to dress up as and we would go shopping together! One year my aunt Maggie and my mom decided to make me my Halloween costume, that year I was Cleopatra, oh the good ol’ days!
Tools Needed:
- Mini Bat & Ghost Cookie Cutter
- Black & Super White Food Color
- Ateco Tip # 1
- Piping Bags
- Royal Icing (Black & Super White)
- Baked Cookies
Lets start decorating our bat cookies!
Add an Ateco tip # 1 to your piping bag and fill it with medium consistency black royal icing and outline your bat cookies.
Wait 5-8 minutes and with flood consistency black royal icing flood your cookies. Let them dry out for 24 hours.
Now lets decorate the cute ghost cookies!
Add an Ateco tip # 1 to your piping bag and fill it with medium consistency super white royal icing and outline your ghost cookies.
Wait 5-8 minutes and with flood consistency super white royal icing flood your cookies.
With the left over black royal icing add two small vertical lines for the eyes and a dot for the mouth. Let them dry out for 24 hours.
Here are my finished cookies! I can’t wait to share them with the little ones and the young at heart!
I can’t decide which one I like best… Am in a batty mood or a spooky mood?
I hope everyone has a safe and Happy Halloween!
Thank you for stopping by!
Stay sweet,
