Super Simple Halloween Cookies
It’s almost Halloween! Yikes! All the parties and festivals have snuck up on me and so I frantically started thinking up simple treats to make and take to this and that. And these Witch Hat Cookies were so easy and such a hit with my kids.
Cute Halloween Cookies the Kids Can Help Make
I’m all about keeping things as simple as possible these days. I just don’t have time for the complicated crafts and detailed desserts. Don’t get me wrong, I love all the super cute and creative things I see on Pinterest and in my Instagram feed around the holidays, but I just don’t have the time or energy right now. One day, when my kiddos are fending for themselves, I’ll put my creative juices back to work and whip up lots of crazy cute goodies.
During this season of life though, I need fast and easy yet still fun and cute. And if the boys can help me in the process, even better!These witch hat cookies are just so easy and turn out pretty darn cute! My boys are obsessed with them and are so excited to take them to a few parties we have this coming weekend.
Just twist the Oreo in half, press the Hershey’s Kiss into the center of the side with the filling still on it and cut a piece of licorice to wrap around the bottom of the kiss. No hocus pocus involved in making these witch hat cookies! A little fun and you’re done.
