I love a good Halloween cupcake as you probably know. And if you don’t check out these Spiderweb Cupcakes and Vampire’s Bite Cupcakes! Anyway, last Halloween I took a sugar cookie decorating class and it changed my whole world. I had always wanted to make really cute cookies but royal icing was far to intimidating for me to give it a go on my own. Though I haven’t made as many batches as I would have thought, every once in a while I’ll bust out my oven gloves and get after it.
While I love a good and fancy decorated cookie more often I crave something more traditional. Chocolate chip? Oatmeal? Peanut Butter? I’ll take one of them all! And today I’m sharing a whole lot of amazing cookie recipes that take those classics and put a Halloween spin on them.
Whether you want to bake up something simple or totally wild, today I’m sharing 80 (yes, eighty!) of my favorite Halloween cookie recipes from all over the internet!
