Ingredients
Scale
- 2 1/4 cups all-purpose flour
- 1 teaspoon baking soda
- 1/2 teaspoon salt
- 1 cup unsalted butter, softened
- 3/4 cup brown sugar
- 3/4 cup granulated sugar
- 2 large eggs
- 2 teaspoons vanilla extract
- 1 cup semi-sweet chocolate chips
- Food coloring: black and orange gel colors
- Optional: Halloween-themed sprinkles and edible decorations
Instructions
- Preheat your oven to 375°F (190°C). Whisk together the flour, baking soda, and salt in a medium bowl. In a large bowl, beat the softened butter, brown sugar, and granulated sugar until creamy. Add eggs one at a time, mixing well after each, then stir in vanilla extract.
- Divide the dough into two halves. Mix black food coloring into one half and orange food coloring into the other, stirring until evenly colored.
- Shape small portions of each colored dough into balls or slightly flatten them. Layer or swirl the colors to create a marbled effect. Place the dough balls on a parchment-lined baking sheet.
- Bake for 8-10 minutes until edges are golden. Cool on a wire rack. Decorate with Halloween sprinkles or edible decorations for added spooky flair.
Notes
- You can add edible googly eyes or themed decorations for a more spooky effect.
- For vegan cookies, replace butter with vegan butter and use dairy-free chocolate chips.
- Make sure not to overbake to keep the cookies soft and chewy.
