Fun Halloween Cauldron Bubble Cookies

These cookies are made with a delicious chocolate dough that is rolled out and cut into shapes, then decorated with green icing to create the illusion of bubbling cauldrons. The recipe yields about 24 cookies and takes approximately 1 hour from start to finish.

Ingredients

1 cup unsalted butter, softened
1 cup granulated sugar
1 cup brown sugar, packed
2 large eggs
1 teaspoon vanilla extract
2 cups all-purpose flour
1 cup unsweetened cocoa powder
1 teaspoon baking soda
1/2 teaspoon salt
Green icing for decoration
Chocolate candies or edible eyes for ‘bubbles’

Instructions

Preheat the Oven: Preheat your oven to 350°F (175°C) and line baking sheets with parchment paper.
Cream the Butter and Sugars: In a large bowl, cream together the softened butter, granulated sugar, and brown sugar until light and fluffy.
Add Eggs and Vanilla: Beat in the eggs one at a time, then stir in the vanilla extract.
Mix Dry Ingredients: In a separate bowl, whisk together the flour, cocoa powder, baking soda, and salt. Gradually add this mixture to the wet ingredients, mixing until just combined.
Shape the Cookies: Roll the dough into balls and place them on the prepared baking sheets, spacing them about 2 inches apart. Flatten each ball slightly.
Bake: Bake in the preheated oven for 10-12 minutes, or until the edges are set. Remove from the oven and let cool on the baking sheets for a few minutes before transferring to wire racks to cool completely.
Decorate: Once cooled, use the green icing to create ‘bubbles’ on top of each cookie. Add chocolate candies or edible eyes for extra fun.
Serve: Enjoy these festive Cauldron Bubble Cookies at your Halloween gathering!
