3D Skull Cookies for Halloween
Ingredients
Instructions
-
In a mixing bowl, cream together the butter and sugar. Add the eggs and vanilla extract, and mix well.
-
In a separate bowl, whisk together the flour, cocoa powder, baking powder, and salt. Gradually add the dry ingredients to the butter mixture, mixing until the dough comes together.
-
Divide the dough into two equal portions. Wrap each portion in plastic wrap and refrigerate for at least 1 hour.
-
Preheat the oven to 180°C (350°F) and line a baking sheet with parchment paper.
-
Remove one portion of dough from the refrigerator. Roll it out on a lightly floured surface to a thickness of about 1/4 inch.
-
Use a skull-shaped cookie cutter to cut out skull shapes from the rolled dough. Place the skulls onto the prepared baking sheet.
-
Repeat Step 5 and Step 6 with the remaining portion of dough.
-
Bake the cookies for 12-15 minutes, or until firm to the touch. Allow them to cool completely on a wire rack.
-
In a microwave-safe bowl, melt the white chocolate in 30-second intervals, stirring until smooth. Add black food coloring and mix well.
-
Using a piping bag or a small spoon, drizzle the melted black chocolate onto the cooled cookies to create skull features.
-
Let the chocolate set at room temperature for about 30 minutes before serving.
-
Enjoy your spooky 3D skull cookies for Halloween!
