An Awesome Halloween Treat!October 21, 2008By Oh_Look_Its_Patti
"I love this recipe -- I've made similar cookies before, and this is a far easier version to make, and tastes just as delicious. My kids love these for our annual Halloween shindig! One variation we like to do is use candy corns for the eyes, which give the cats a creepy appearance, and we just add the candies after the cookies come out of the oven."
