If you do have a good recipe how to make Halloween cookies, feel free to post a recipe or a link here. Thanks.

I haven't done that in years, but I did buy a couple of new cookie cutters last week, so I may be doing something. More likely, I will use them to make Halloween-themed sandwiches for my kids' school lunches. (These are big cookie cutters, almost the size of a slice of bread.)

Basically, to make Halloween cookies, you just need a basic sugar cookie recipe and some cookie cutters shaped in seasonal ways.

There are years when I have bought those pre-made cookies with Halloween designs in them and made them for after-school snacks. They are basic sugar cookies, very easy, and my kids like them. I can't recall if they are Pillsbury or some other company. They come on little cardboard trays and have to be baked at home in 18 or 20 minutes. They expand as they cook.

Halloween M&M cookies are very good! I am going to make it next month.

I'll definitely be making some Halloween cookies at some point in October with my new cutters!!

I made Snikerdoodles, but rolled them in cinnamon and orange sugar to make them Halloweenish.

I may have to wait until November to make Halloween cookies.

Well, we're not going to make cookies.... we will make Halloween cake.

Yes, that's good cookies! Last October 30th, I baked Pillsbury Spooky ghost cookies! They're so good!

Looks like I'll have to wait 'till Crimbo. Tell you one thing, though. My Crimbo cookies are gonna be Halloween shapes this year!
