No Tricks! Only Halloween Treats

MONSTER EYEBALL COOKIES

Spooky season is here! The spirit of Halloween lasts all month long, which is the perfect reason to make some terrifyingly terrific treats. Halloween is one of the most enjoyable times to make sweet confections because it really allows chefs to be creative. Whether you are formulating spooky snacks with your little ones, or making creepy cakes for a party, Halloween-inspired desserts should be hair-raising for the right reasons.

Check out our new recipe for monster eye cookies. They are perfect for a fun kiddo treat or to serve at a ghoulish gathering. The best part, they are super easy and take only three ingredients if you choose the no-bake option. Change out cookie and icing flavors to get the look (or monster) you prefer. Even better, add some sprinkles (from Wholesale Sugar Flowers, of course) to complete your festive treat.
