These are amazing!! They are super easy and my kids love making them. I use a cookie scoop when I put them on the cookie sheet, and they do come out ball like. Little balls of awesomeness! Anyways, one batch makes A LOT, and we have a bunch of Halloween parties to go to, I want to make these for the parties, but Im at a loss on how to decorate them Halloween like. Not very creative. I need ideas! Help! Thanks! :)
What about getting some orange white chocolate pieces (You know the candy you buy and put in those little molds) and cutting them up in chunks and adding them to your cookie dough with the chocolate chips.
You can usually find holiday colored chocolate chips... use orange chips? If you can find orange and green chocolate chips, maybe place one green one at the top, like pumpkin stem?
You could ice them white with one choclate chip cookie in the middle then use red icing to draw little lines to make them look like blood shot eyes.
Or you could get a couple cute little trick or treat buckets and some halloween tissue paper. Put the cookies, as is, in the bucket. That would be way easier, less messy and still a really festive presentation.
get those halloween cookie cutters from the craft stores. Roll the dough flat on a pre dusted with flower surface (cookie sheet or wax paper, so the shapes are easily removed), helps to dust your rolling pin so the dough don't stick to it (or rub some veg oil on it). Cut out the shapes and bake as normal.
Use food coloring.. Orange, or green or purple.
Or get the halloween M 'n M's and replace the choc chip for those.
If you have difficulty finding Halloween M & M's, you could also use Reeses Pieces as they are fall colors. They would be pretty tatsy mixed with choclate chips!
If they're ball shaped, dip in white choc candy coating (I use white almond bark). While they're still wet, put a gummy life saver and a mini choc chip in the middle of the life saver -- looks like an eyeball.
well you could always use thin black/orange/green icing, put it in a spiral on top of the cookie and run a toothpick through it horizontally starting from the center...out. Making it look like spider webs on top of the cookie. Then put little plastic spiders on top of them.
