Ingredients
Scale
Chocolate Chip Cookie Dough
- 1 (36 oz) package Toll House Chocolate Chip Cookie Dough
Halloween Sugar Cookie Dough
- 1 package Pillsbury Pumpkin Shape Sugar Cookie Dough (or any Halloween design you prefer)
Instructions
- Preheat the Oven: Preheat your oven to 350°F (175°C) to ensure it reaches the perfect temperature for even baking.
- Portion the Dough: Divide the chocolate chip cookie dough into 20 equal portions, about 2 tablespoons each. Roll each portion into a smooth ball between your palms to create uniform cookies.
- Place and Flatten: Arrange the dough balls on an ungreased cookie sheet, spacing them appropriately. Slightly flatten the tops of each chocolate chip cookie dough ball to allow the sugar cookie topping to adhere better.
- Add Halloween Cookies: Place one uncooked Pillsbury Halloween Sugar Cookie directly on top of each flattened chocolate chip dough ball, pressing gently to secure.
- Bake: Bake the cookies for 10-11 minutes or until the edges of the chocolate chip cookies are set and the sugar cookies have lightly browned.
- Cool: Let the cookies cool on the baking sheet for 5 minutes to firm up before transferring them to a cooling rack to cool completely.
- Serve: Serve these charming, festive cookies at your next Halloween party and enjoy the delightful blend of flavors and textures.
Notes
- For best results, do not grease the cookie sheet as the doughs already contain enough fat to prevent sticking.
- You can substitute the Halloween sugar cookie shapes with other festive designs or use plain sugar cookie dough cut into shapes with cookie cutters.
- Be sure not to overbake to keep the cookies soft and chewy.
- Store cookies in an airtight container at room temperature for up to 3 days.
- Feel free to add a drizzle of icing or decorative sprinkles for extra Halloween flair.
