Mixin' Mom: Monster Cookie Playdate

Last week we made Monster Cookies for a playdate I hosted and the kids loved decorating and creating their own little 'monsters.' I just used sprinkles and edible candies that we had in the house for the kids to decorate with and they had so much fun using their imaginations! I do recommend getting candy eyeballs for your monsters! I used my classic sugar cookie recipe found here, dyed store bought frosting funky bright colors and allowed the kids to go crazy!

Supplies

- sugar cookie dough

- popsicle sticks

- candy eyeballs

- sprinkles

- chocolate chips or mini M&Ms

- frosting

- gel food coloring

1. Make your dough and use a 2 inch cookie scoop to form your cookie with a popsicle stick in the middle of the dough. Flatten dough on a parchment paper covered baking sheet. Bake at 350 degrees for 12 minutes, or until sides of cookies are golden brown.

2. Allow cookies to cool completely before decorating.

3. Frost cookies and decorate as desired!
