creepy creature cookies

submitted by: Bright Ideas
  • Prep Time: 20 min.
  • Bake Time: 12-14 min.
  • Decoration Time: 30 min.
  • Difficulty: Easy
  • Yield: Makes 18 cookies.

Ingredients

  • 1 roll (18 oz.) refrigerated cookie dough
  • 1/2 cup cocoa powder
  • 1/2 cup flour
  • 1 ½ cups chopped SNICKERS® Bars
  • 1 cup marshmallow fluff
  • Various tints of vanilla frosting
  • ½ cup M&M’S® Brand Minis Chocolate Candies
  • Small creature cookie cutters

Directions

  • 1. Knead the cookie dough with the cocoa powder and flour until smooth. This will keep the dough from spreading too much while baking.
  • 2. Roll it out to 1/2-inch thickness. Using cookie cutters, cut out creepy shapes, cutting at least two cookies per creature. Transfer to a non-stick cookie sheet and bake in a preheated, 350°F oven for 12-14 minutes.
  • 3. Once baked, remove and cool completely. In the meantime, make the creatures’ filling.
  • 4. Combine SNICKERS® Bars with the marshmallow fluff. Spread the filling over one of each pair of creature cookies. Place the matching cookie on top.
  • 5. Frost the tops of the creatures with the tinted vanilla frosting, and decorate randomly with M&M’S® Brand Minis Chocolate Candies.
  • Tip: You can exchange the marshmallow fluff with peanut butter.
