πŸ‘»πŸͺ Spooky Sourdough Cookies for Halloween


Hey Reader,

My fiancΓ© and I just decorated our house for Halloween, which is one of our favorite holidays. We always have a great time picking out decorations together, and it really gets us in the spirit of the season. πŸ‚πŸ‘»

To make our home feel even cozier, I decided to bake some Halloween-themed cookies after we finished decorating. πŸͺπŸ‘©β€πŸ³

I kept it simple by using recipes I already had but added a fun twist. I mixed Halloween M&Ms into my sourdough chocolate chip cookies and decorated my sourdough sugar cookies with Halloween sprinkles. So much fun!

I think they're perfect for a Halloween party or just to enjoy at home. Give them a try and let me know what you think! 😊

P.S. - Reply to this email and let me know! Do you decorate for fall and/or Halloween?

​Halloween M&M Cookies​

Mixing Halloween-themed M&Ms into my classic sourdough chocolate chip cookies makes for a fun and festive treat.

​Halloween Frosted Sugar Cookies​

Sprinkle spooky Halloween-themed sprinkles on my frosted sourdough sugar cookies for a quick and easy treat. You can also roll out the dough and use cookie cutters to create fun Halloween shapes!


To help you get the best results, here are some ingredients and tools I recommend:

  • ​Halloween M&Ms - The Ghoul's Mix Milk Chocolate M&Ms are perfect for adding a little Halloween fun to classic chocolate chip cookies.
  • ​Halloween Sprinkles - So many fun options, but here are some that I think are super cute!
  • ​Halloween Cookie Cutters - Adorable Halloween cookie cutters if you want to make fun shapes with the sugar cookie dough.
  • ​Kitchen Scale - For the best results with my recipes and fewer dishes to wash, I highly recommend getting a kitchen scale.

Hey Reader, It’s the final countdown to Christmas! πŸŽ„πŸŽ… This year, I'm celebrating across three days. And of course, sourdough will be a part of each one. On the Saturday before Christmas, we're having Italian food with my dad, and I’m bringing sourdough garlic bread to share. Christmas Eve is at my mom’s house, where I’m making meatballs with sourdough breadcrumbs. And for Christmas Day brunch with my fiancé’s family, I’m planning a loaf of sourdough bread for avocado toast. So simple and...

Hey Reader, What do you usually cook for Christmas dinner? πŸŽ„πŸ½οΈ My fiancΓ© and I are part Italian, so I love making Italian dishes for the holidays. I usually whip up a big pot of red sauce for baked ziti, lasagna, and meatballs. 🍝 Last year, I started making my homemade lasagna with sourdough pasta and using sourdough breadcrumbs for the meatballs. It was so good! I’m also looking forward to making some sourdough side dishes for our Christmas dinners again this year. Today, I want to share...

And try a few unique ones, too. In the...
