Halloween doesn’t have to be all spooky and scary, bring some fun and cuteness to the party with Boo Halloween Cookies that everyone will love and enjoy!
My favorite thing about this Boo Halloween Cookie set is all the different elements of the season you can combine in one cookie! A witch, a ghost, spider webs, and pumpkins make up this BOO, which is not scary in the least! They taste as good as they look, and I am going to walk you through all the steps needed to decorate these cute Halloween cookies.

Aren’t these just the cutest?! My favorite cookies are the ones that look really complicated but when you break it all down they are actually very easy and just need layers and time to dry between the layers. Anyone is capable of decorating these cookies, believe me when I say, “if I can do this anyone can do this!” Give these Boo Cookies a try and share the photos on Instagram and tag me, I can’t wait to see your cute creations!
