Halloween Animal Cookie Blondies
These blondies mix the chewy, rich texture of traditional blondies with the colorful fun of Halloween, making them perfect for any fall gathering or spooky party.
Ingredients:
- 1 bag of Halloween-themed animal cookies
- 1 box of yellow cake mix
- 1/4 cup baking oil (I prefer almond oil)
- 1 egg
- 3 tablespoons milk
- 1/4 cup Halloween sprinkles
- 1/2 cup white chocolate chips
- 8×8 brownie pan
- Cooking spray or butter for greasing
Instructions:
- Prepare the Cookies: Chop or crush two-thirds of the bag of animal cookies, and set the rest aside whole for later.
- Mix the Batter: In a large mixing bowl, combine the yellow cake mix, almond oil, egg, and milk. Mix well until all the ingredients are well incorporated.
- Add the Goodies: To the batter, add the Halloween sprinkles, white chocolate chips, and the crushed animal cookies. Stir everything together until just combined.
- Prepare the Pan: Grease your 8×8 brownie pan with cooking spray or a bit of butter to ensure nothing sticks.
- Assemble the Blondies: Pour the thick batter into the prepared pan. It will be dense like cookie dough. Smooth out the top and then press the whole animal cookies into the top of the batter. If desired, sprinkle some extra chocolate chips or Halloween sprinkles over the top for added festivity.
- Bake: Pop the pan into a preheated oven at 350°F (175°C) and bake for about 25 minutes, or until the edges are golden brown and a toothpick inserted into the center comes out clean.
- Cool and Serve: Allow the blondies to cool completely in the pan before slicing them into squares. This ensures they set properly and are easy to cut.
These Halloween Animal Cookie Blondies are the perfect way to add a bit of Halloween cheer to your dessert table. With their festive appearance and delicious taste, they’re sure to be a hit with guests of all ages.
Whether you’re hosting a Halloween party or simply want to enjoy some seasonal baking, these blondies are a great choice.
So, grab those Halloween animal cookies next time you’re at Target and get ready for a baking adventure that’s sure to bring smiles and a bit of spooky delight to your kitchen!
Happy Halloween and happy baking!
