Ahhh! I am so happy to share these! In all honesty, I’ve wanted to make these fun, super yummy cookies for months. Actually, since almost a year ago when I made my much loved Christmas Monster Cookies. It was then that I knew that Halloween Monster Cookies needed to follow. I’m not sure which cookie I love more. Both are unique, special, and melt-in-your-mouth delicious. I know, I’m such a dork, but nonetheless, I just love how fun Halloween can be! I wanted to share them very early in the Halloween season. My hope is that you can bake them up for all of your Halloween needs. Parties, school functions, and even just as a fun cookie to bake on a random weekday. Whatever you bake them up for, they require almost no effort!

Spooky details

Start off by gathering all of your ingredients. You’ll need the basics: salted butter, dark and light brown sugar, flour, baking powder, baking soda, and salt – the usuals. You’ll also need the stir-ins, they’re the most important element of these cookies. You’ll need old-fashioned oats, salted pretzel twists, semi-sweet or dark chocolate chunks, and candy eyes. Plus plenty of spooky Halloween M&M’s, which, of course, make these cookies. Simply mix up the dough, bake each cookie off, and then enjoy! We love to eat these cookies warm, just out of the oven. They’re just the right type of gooey delicious cookies to pull out, slightly cool, and indulge in. One thing that’s important to note, is that these cookies do spread, so don’t stress on that. Because of this, they’re meant to have slightly crisp edges and perfectly soft gooey centers, just like in the photos. My favorite type of cookie. Everyone has really been loving these cookies, they’re definitely an Oslo favorite! If you want a bit of a thicker cookie, simply omit the additional egg yolk and use only two eggs. As a result, this will give you a thicker cookie without as much spreading. To get the M&M’s to really pop, I like to add in a few just before the cookies finish baking completely. This way each cookie has a bit of the festive M&M’s right on top. Excited to see you all bake these up this month! What’s incredible about these cookies is just how easy they are. So have fun with them and enjoy every shamefully sinful spooky monster bite! Looking for other Halloween cookies?
