Recipe Tips
- Place your cookie sandwiches in the refrigerator for 30-60 minutes to firm up the icing. This stops it from oozing out when eating.
- You don’t need to pipe, you can just spread the icing but it will not look as neat. That’s okay though.
- Feel free to double up the icing for a luxurious cookie.
- For fun, you could cut out shapes like stars, etc. from the cookie dough before baking.
Variations
- Vary the cookies – you can use things like white chocolate cookies or oreos to you preference.
- Add sprinkles – Accessories these with some festive colored sprinkles or shaped sprinkles like a bat, cat, pumpkin, etc.
- Decorate with colored frosting and colored candy eyes – there’s no reason your halloween cookies can’t have a bright and colorful look.
