But before you start baking, here are a few tips to help you get the best results:
- Use gel food coloring: Regular liquid food coloring can make your cookie dough too wet and affect the texture of the cookies. Gel food coloring is more concentrated and will give you more vibrant colors without affecting the dough.
- Chill the dough: When making cookies that you will be rolling be sure you are chilling the dough for at least 30 minutes will make it easier to work with and help the cookies keep their shape during baking.
- Use cookie cutters: Halloween is all about spooky shapes, so grab some cookie cutters in the shape of bats, ghosts, pumpkins, and other Halloween favorites to make your cookies even more festive.
- Get creative with decorations: Don’t be afraid to get creative with your decorations! Use Halloween sprinkles, colored sugar, and icing to give your cookies a spooky and fun look.
