You guys! It's like three days to Halloween. Can you even believe it? And, as usual, I've posted next to nothing Halloween-related because I've been so busy. AAAAAH. The semester is starting to wind down though, so I'm hoping to have a little more time to do bloggie things. 🙂 So now, these cookies. Are they not the cutest thing you've ever seen? Coming up with a name for them was harder than actually making them, fyi. Super adorable, fast, and easy. They are the perfect little Halloween treat!
One of the reasons I have been totally M.I.A. is that yesterday was Big-Little Reveal for my sorority! If you are not familiar with greek life, what it means is that I got a "little sister," and she is a new member of the organization. So as her Big, what I do is spoil her rotten and be there for her and basically be her best friend  🙂 I had been crafting up a storm which is why I didn't have time to blog! Not to mention all those exams and stuff... phew. Glad that's over! On that note, I am hoping to do a craft post in the near future talking about what I made for her. So adorable! She came over last night and we made these and let me tell ya... they are so yummy! Whip these up for any Halloween event you have coming up and you will definitely be the most popular person there. Promise. 🙂 Happy baking!
Halloween Chocolate Chip Blossom Cookies
Adapted from White Chocolate Macadamia Chip Cookies
Yields: about 2 ½ dozen cookies
1 cup {2 sticks} unsalted butter, at room temperature
¾ cup brown sugar
¼ cup white granulated sugar
1 box white chocolate instant pudding mix
2 eggs
1 teaspoon vanilla extract
1 teaspoon baking soda
2 ¼ cups all purpose flour
½ teaspoon salt
1 cup Nestle Toll House Halloween chocolate chips
½ bag candy corn pumpkins {about half the bag}
Preheat the oven to 350F, and line two baking sheets with parchment, set aside.
In a large bowl, beat together the butter and sugars with a hand mixer until light and fluffy. Add in the eggs, vanilla, and pudding mix, and beat until well incorporated. Switch to using a spatula, and add in the flour, baking soda, and salt, mixing until a dough forms. Stir in the chocolate chips. Scoop out cookie dough spoonfuls {about 2 tablespoon each} and place on your baking sheet. I aim for 12/pan! Bake the cookies for about 10 minutes, then remove from the oven and immediately place a pumpkin in the center. Let them cool slightly and enjoy!
