Celebrate Halloween with these fun and delicious Frankenstein Candy Corn Cookies, perfect for kids and adults alike.

Ingredients

  • 1 cup unsalted butter, softened
  • 1 cup granulated sugar
  • 1 cup brown sugar, packed
  • 2 large eggs
  • 2 teaspoons vanilla extract
  • 3 cups all-purpose flour
  • 1 teaspoon baking soda
  • 1/2 teaspoon salt
  • 1 cup candy corn
  • Green icing or food coloring
  • Chocolate chips or melts (for decoration)

Instructions

  1. Preheat your oven to 350°F (175°C) to ensure even baking.
  2. Cream together the softened butter, granulated sugar, and brown sugar until the mixture is smooth and fluffy.
  3. Beat in the eggs one at a time, ensuring each is fully incorporated before adding the next. Stir in the vanilla extract, mixing well.
  4. Mix together the flour, baking soda, and salt in another bowl. Gradually add this dry mixture to the wet ingredients, stirring until just combined.
  5. Fold in the candy corn, distributing them evenly throughout the dough.
  6. Drop spoonfuls of the dough onto ungreased baking sheets, spacing them about 2 inches apart to allow for spreading.
  7. Bake in the preheated oven for 10-12 minutes, or until the edges are lightly golden.
  8. Cool for a few minutes before transferring them to wire racks to cool completely. Once cooled, decorate with green icing to create Frankenstein’s face, adding chocolate chips or melts for the eyes.

Notes

Make sure butter is softened for better mixing, and don’t overmix the dough for light, fluffy cookies.
