Crunchy Halloween Cookies (No Cookie Cutter Needed!)

I wanted some fun but easy-to-bake cookies.

I don't have any hints to share in particular! Mix the ingredients, refrigerate, cut, then bake! That's all. These are very simple cookies!
The hardest part is probably drawing the face (haha).
You can use a cookie cutter or do it by hand, whichever you prefer. These are a blast to make with your kids. This yields about 15 cookies per batch. Original recipe by Macky-choco.

Ingredients

15 servings
  1. 100 gramsKabocha squash
  2. 150 gramsCake flour
  3. 100 gramsUnsalted margarine (or unsalted butter)
  4. 2 tbspSugar
  5. 1Granulated sugar (for decoration, as desired)

Cooking Instructions

  1. 1

    Combine the room-temperature margarine and sugar, and whisk until it has a white, mayonnaise-like consistency.

  2. 2

    Add the sifted cake flour and mashed kabocha and mix. Don't worry if it's still soft and sticky.

  3. 3

    Wrap and let it rest in the refrigerator for 30 minutes. Wrap to whatever thickness you like. I rolled it in a 5 cm thick log.

  4. 4

    When it has hardened, sprinkle granulated sugar on top, roll to coat, and cut in about 5 mm slices.

  5. 5

    Arrange on a baking pan, and reshape the dough.

  6. 6

    Draw on the faces. This time I used a straw to poke the eyes and mouth, and a toothpick to make the lines of the pumpkin.

  7. 7

    Bake in a pre-heated oven at 360°F/180°C for 15 minutes. Once they're fragrant and crunchy, they're complete.

  8. 8

    For extra-scary cookies, I tried making Munch's "The Scream!"
