Moon Spell Cookies
Tis the season for spooky treats! These moon spell cookies are the perfect treat to make a Halloween party…OR if you want to just cast a spell on someone…
I am so excited to write this moon spell cookie recipe post. Halloween is one of my favorite holidays, and the moon fascinates me. Witch’s also have always interested me, and the spells they do. Even though I am no expert to witchcraft or casting spells, making these cookies was good enough for me! Not to mention they taste AMAZING!
I found a recipe on Pinterest : https://i.pinimg.com/736x/55/e8/86/55e88661f82210679d71a4fea5b75ced.jpg which really inspired me to make them. I switched up the recipe a little to make it somewhat my own.
They were so easy to make, using very few ingredients. And they look amazing!
The original recipe called for different types of herbs and spices for different types of spells, which I thought was pretty fun. For love, it called for some cinnamon. So, I made sure to add some cinnamon to my dough recipe!
The other ingredients you will need are grated almonds, flour, confectioners sugar, an egg yolk and 1 egg, butter, and salt.
First, in a stand mixer or hand-held mixer combine the almonds, flour, sugar, salt and cinnamon until well combined. I used a food chopper to chop my almonds up finely. You could also buy some almonds already grated.
When everything is combined well, add your egg yolk, egg, and butter. mix well until the dough starts to form into a ball.
Take your dough out of bowl, and add to some wax paper, or plastic wrap, wrap up and let chill in the fridge for about 20 minutes.
After your dough is chilled, its time to turn the dough into cute crescent moons.
take about a tablespoon size pieces of dough, and roll it out into a long log. Making sure that the middle part is thicker and then ends are thinner. Curl it into a crescent shape. Place on a lined baking sheet with parchment paper or non stick spray.
Bake at preheated oven for 20 minutes. Once they are done, you want to let them cook completely.
When the cookies are cooled completely, its time to sprinkle some moon dust, or confectioners sugar on top.
And there you have it…Moon Spell Cookies…aren’t they awesome?!
Enjoy them while they last! Because I now they won’t be lasting long…
