These giant bakery-style Halloween sugar cookies are rolled into multi-colored sprinkles for a festive treat for Halloween! Your kids will love these Halloween sprinkles cookies!
If you are looking for a quick fun way to celebrate Halloween, look no further. These Halloween sugar cookies are so easy and your kids will love helping you roll the dough balls into the sprinkles. Judah is ALL about sprinkles these days, so we made these together one day and had a blast in the kitchen.
These are not thick Halloween sugar cookies. They are more chewy and thin, but doughy and marvelous. The outer edges are crispy, which is how I love any sugar cookie - crispy shell with a soft center.
Do you love bakery style cookies? I'm talking about the humongous, bigger than your face (well, at least your hand) cookies that many people go bonkers over! I'm one of those people. BIG cookies, friends, is where it's at!
So, go now, grab some Halloween sprinkles and use ingredients already in your pantry to whip up these giant suckers! Hey, it actually might be a fun idea to add lollypop sticks to these and make cookie pops! 😉
