Time 22m

Number Of Ingredients 9

2 cups + 2 Tablespoons all-purpose flour
½ teaspoon baking soda
½ teaspoon salt
12 Tablespoons butter (, melted and cooled until warm)
1 cup light brown sugar
1/2 cup granulated sugar
1 large + 1 egg yolk egg
2 teaspoons vanilla extract
2 cups semi-sweet chocolate chips (divided)

Steps:

  • Heat oven to 325 degrees F.
  • In a medium bowl mix together flour, salt, and baking soda..
  • In a separate large mixing bowl beat the butter and sugars together with an electric mixer until well blended.
  • Add the egg, egg yolk, and vanilla. Stir in the dry ingredients and mix until just combined.
  • Gently stir in ¾ cup chocolate chips. The dough will be soft.
  • Gently scoop dough into balls and place on a parchment lined cookie sheet. Bake for 10-12 minutes.
  • Remove from oven and place 3-4 chocolate chips into the tops of each cookie, point side up.
  • Add remaining chocolate chips to a microwave safe bowl and microwave, on low power, stirring every 30 seconds, until melted.
  • Just barely cut the corner off of a small ziplock bag (you want the hole to be very small to make your spider legs). Spoon the melted chocolate into the bag and use it draw spider legs on the sides of the chocolate chips.
  • Store cookies in an airtight container or freeze in a freezer ziplock bag.

HALLOWEEN CHOCOLATE CHIP COOKIES



Halloween Chocolate Chip Cookies image

These cookies are monster sized and monster themed, making them perfect treats for your Halloween party. They bake up crispy on the edges and chewy inside. Feel free to vary the sprinkles and add some non pareils to the mix. Candy eyeballs come in various sizes so play around to see which combo you like best - we happen to think one medium and one large makes the monster look delightfully deranged.

Time 1h30m

Yield About 2 dozen

Number Of Ingredients 15

2 cups all-purpose flour
1 teaspoon baking powder
1 teaspoon kosher salt
1/2 teaspoon baking soda
1 cup packed light brown sugar
3/4 cup granulated sugar
2 sticks (1 cup) unsalted butter, at room temperature
2 large eggs
2 teaspoons pure vanilla extract
1 1/2 cups old-fashioned oats
1 cup mixed green, purple and orange candy-coated chocolates, such as M&Ms
1 cup semi-sweet chocolate chips
1 cup mixed green, purple, orange and black Halloween sprinkles and nonpareils
1/2 cup chopped pecans, optional
48 candy eyeballs

Steps:

  • Position an oven rack in the top and bottom and preheat the oven to 350 degrees F. Line 2 baking sheets with parchment. Stir together the flour, baking powder, salt and baking soda in a medium bowl.
  • Combine the brown sugar and granulated sugar with the butter in a stand mixer fitted with the paddle attachment. Beat on medium-high speed until light and fluffy, 1 to 2 minutes. Add the eggs and vanilla and beat well to combine, 1 to 2 minutes. Add the flour mixture and beat on low speed to combine, scraping the bowl down once to make sure it is mixed well, about 1 minute. Add the oats, candy-coated chocolates, chocolate chips, half of the sprinkles and the pecans if using. Mix on low speed just to combine, about 30 seconds.
  • Spread the remaining 1/2 cup sprinkles in a small bowl. Using a 1/4-cup (2-ounce) ice cream scoop or dry measuring cup, scoop a scant 1/4 cup of dough, roll into a ball and flatten them slightly with the palm of your hand. Press the top of the ball in the sprinkles. Place 6 balls of dough on each baking sheet. Arrange 2 eyeballs on each dough ball. (Refrigerate the remaining dough while you bake this batch.)
  • Bake, rotating the pans halfway through, until the edges are crisp and golden, 15 to 18 minutes. Remove the pans to wire racks to cool slightly, then transfer the cookies to the racks to cool completely. Allow the baking sheets to cool and then repeat with the remaining dough.
