Halloween is HERE

Halloween Season is here....and I don't have enough time to do all the things I want to do! It can not end. I simply LOVE this holiday. I think it might be my favorite :) I've been busy this week making cookies for Trevor's class party on Monday. Here is the selection I made!!!

My Frankenstein was inspired by Cookie Crumbs on Facebook. It seems a lot of the blogs and sites I look at decided to use the square and round cookie cutter for so many things. So I HAD to try it as well!

Something must be brewing for my witches hats!
More from one of my favorites - Sugarbelle. The more traditional Frankenstein.
Not Halloween I know...but I had some extra dough and had seen this a few weeks ago. I had to make some. I loved how Cookies with Character brought a little sunshine in with a daisy cookie cutter. I will be making more of these in the future!
Using a new cookie cutter I purchased recently I made a witches boot!
I have to thank Munchkin Munchies for inspiring these Spider Cookies.
They are made with a candy shaped cookie cutter with a triangle attached as a hat. Simply adorable!

Trevor didn't want me to make scary cookies so when I saw these ghosts from Catch My Party's blog I thought they were perfect!
An assortment of pumpkins. I haven't quite found the pumpkin face I really like though. I wasn't too happy with any of these.
Ohh....a spooky cat face. But not too spooky! Meow!
Everyone loves candy corn, right?
My new tombstone cookie cutter.
I hope the kids enjoy the Halloween cookies! They are going to have a fun day on Monday at their party. And I really liked making them!
I have a few more tricks up my sleeve for Halloween yet that I have to finish! I've been up a few hours already working on them!

HAPPY BAKING

Owls in Pumpkins and Spider Webs

Yeah, JEN'S GOT HER GROOVE BACK!!!

I'm back in the kitchen and feeling much better. I was BUSY today.

I woke up early this AM and started thinking about some round cookies that I had all ready to go in my freezer....I was dying to frost them and make something pretty out of them! I had a few things in my mind that I had recently copied so I jumped out of bed and went to work!! And got them all done today.

The Owl in Pumpkin cookie was inspired by Sugarbelle. I used a slightly different shape than she did but think they turned out pretty good.


There is quite a bit of detail in the eyes....Using about 3 layers of wet frosting to create those.....

The rest of the cookies I decorated today were inspired by The Baking Sheet. Once again a slightly different shape than she used but I think the round shape worked too!

And I"m already starting something else for fun!!! Getting right back into the baking which is so nice to be able to do! I had to have a picture of myself rolling cookies - there rarely is any proof that I"m actually the one that does anything!

Happy Baking,
Jen
