Black Cat Cookies

Every year at Halloween time, I like to make these black cat face cookies. This year I procrastinated and didn’t end up making them until today. However, I think they are a fun tradition and I had a little help from Mr. C this year!

The recipe is as follows:

1 cup butter, softened
2 cups sugar
2 eggs
3 teaspoons vanilla extract
3 cups flour
1 cup baking cocoa
1/2 tsp. baking powder
1/2 tsp. baking soda
1/2 tsp. salt
assorted candy
*Cream together butter and sugar.
*Beat in eggs and vanilla
*Combine the flour, cocoa, baking powder, baking soda and salt
*Gradually add dry ingredients to creamed mixture
*Mix until dough forms
Then:
Roll dough into 1 1/2 inch balls

Dip the bottom of a glass onto a plate or bowl of sugar

Press sugared glass onto dough ball to flatten (to about 1/4″)

They will look like this when you flatten the dough balls

Pinch the top of the cookie to form the 2 ears of the cat

Using a fork, press the pronged end onto the dough to form 2 sets of whiskers


* Bake at 350 degrees for 10-12 minutes

Have your candy ready to go

Once the cookies are out of the oven and still on the pan, press candy onto warm cookies to make the face. Mr. C helped during this step. We had to be very careful because of the hot pan.

Once they cooled we delivered cookies to the neighbors and some of Mr. C’s little friends. Of course we had to taste a few ourselves.
These cookies are cute and festive. It is always fun to make these yummy cookies. It gets me in the mood for the upcoming holiday season and prepared for all the baking ahead!

I got this recipe out of a Taste of Home’s magazine years ago
