Tombstones and Castles Sesame Cookies for Halloween
I wanted to prepare a Halloween cake that would really impress and excite everyone, so I thought of this cookie recipe to make decorations.
Be careful with the castle! (But if it breaks, don't worry too much. You can just reinforce it with chocolate.) Makes 1 castle, 3 tombstones, 1 gate, 4 columns.

Cooking Instructions
- 1
Combine ingredients from the butter to the ground sesame, and mix together in a food processor until smooth.
- 2
Add cream, egg yolk and vanilla extract.
- 3
Keep stirring while pulsing until the dough lumps like the photo.
- 4
Roll into a ball and flatten the dough wrapped in plastic wrap and put in the freezer for 30 minutes.
- 5
[Tomb] Roll out the wrapped dough to about 7~8 mm and cut out the shape of a tomb with a knife. Mark the inside of the tomb with the knife as well.
- 6
Press the flat end of the knife into the inside to make a dip.
- 7
It should look like this, so there's an outline around the edge of the tombstone that's slightly higher than the middle. Line a sheet pan with parchment paper and lay the cookies.
- 8
Here's a cool way to alter the design. The eyes and nose were shaped using the tip and end of a bamboo skewer or toothpick.
- 9
Next cut out this shape...
- 10
Just like before, make an shallow indentation, and poke four holes to the cross.
- 11
[Castle] Here's our castle image. Flatten the dough to 4 mm thick on top of an oven sheet.
- 12
For the window frames, roof and arch, add dough to create a 3D effect. Create the impression of stone with your knife. The pointed end is so we can place it into a cake later.
- 13
Create tiles on the triangular roof.
- 14
[Gate] Flatten the dough to 5 mm thick, and cut it to this shape.
- 15
Add another layer of dough on top of the arch. Stick it securely.
- 16
Create the stone texture using your knife again. Adding some cracks will make it look like a ruin.
- 17
Columns: Make 4 square shaped cookies for the corners of. Each one is 7 cm tall and 3 cm wide, and 5 mm thick.
- 18
Add dough on top, and create a stone texture.
- 19
It will be used like this.
- 20
Here are all the parts laid out on the oven sheet. Bake in the oven for 30 minutes at 150°C (300°F).
- 21
Done. The color is a little weak, but it will change after cooling.
- 22
Make an icing tube with your oven paper, put in melted chocolate, then write on the arch and tombstones.
- 23
Because the castle is so big, it will crack easily. To prevent cracking, spread melted white chocolate on the back.
- 24
All that's left is to decorate your castle to your heart's content.

Jack Cookies for Halloween with Black Sesame Jack Cookies for Halloween with Black Sesame
I love Halloween, and I'm a big fan of Jack Skellinton from the film "The Nightmare Before Christmas." I felt that the deep color of black sesame was better suited for these cookies, rather than cocoa.Please take care when placing on the facial features. Even if it's a little crooked, well, Jack's face is a bit crooked, so don't worry about it. But if you're really having a lot of difficulty, just roll the two types of dough together to make black sesame marble cookie! If you don't press the black dough into the face, when baked it'll turn brown instead of black, so be careful. The amount of cookies yielded by this recipe depends on the size of each one.

Halloween Cookies Halloween Cookies
I drew fun Halloween characters using icing! By using specially shaped cookie cutters you can make even more designs. I hope you'll make a lot of these cookies!Watch the consistency of the icing. For drawing outlines and letters it should be on the stiff side, and to spread out over a large area it should be on the loose side.When thinning out the icing, try adding a drop of lemon juice. For about 20-25 black and white cookies, each one 5 cm [2.0 in] big. Recipe by Choco makaron -

Frosted Cookies Halloween Ghosts Frosted Cookies Halloween Ghosts
I adapted the cookie recipe from one in a cookbook called "DIA Collection's Frosted Cookie Decoration Recipe." I think that this only needs black icing instead of several colors, which simplifies the recipe.For the icing tip, even a 1mm icing tip may be too wide. It's easier to cut a tip off a plastic icing or piping bag so you can draw a thin line. You can use the cheap ones.Makes 80 cookies.(Recipe by xxsayumixx) -

Halloween Sugar Monster Cookies Halloween Sugar Monster Cookies
My wife needed something for a baked goods fundraiser, and, as kids don't pine for infusions of basil or balsamic caramels, I came up with this. It's a firm but chewy sugar drop cookie in sugar sprinkles and decorated with candy eyes for monstrous effect. Had to make a couple recipes as my little monsters were ferociously devouring the sugar monsters with reckless abandon, and we needed 3 dozen for the sale. Scales well.
