Equipment

  • Mixing Bowls
  • Cookie Sheet
  • Oven

Ingredients
  

  • 1 Egg
  • 3/4 cups all-purpose flour
  • 1/2 tsp baking soda
  • 1/4 cup unsweetened cocoa powder
  • 1/3 cup sugar
  • 1/2 tsp salt
  • 1/2 tsp vanilla extract
  • 5 tbsp vegetable oil
  • 1/4 cup peanut butter chips
  • Sprinkles/candy eyes to decorate

Instructions
 

  • Preheat oven to 350
  • Combine cocoa powder, sugar, flour, salt, baking soda in a bowl and whisk or sift together
  • In a smaller bowl, combine egg, oil, vanilla. Whisk together and stir into dry mixture
  • Stir until mixture clumps together into a dough (it will be oily)
  • Add peanut butter chips and spooky sprinkles and combine
  • Using wet hands, form into roughly 1 inch balls, and place them 2 inches apart on a lined cookie sheet (I prefer a silicone baking mat)
  • Press candy eyes, additional sprinkles and/or additional peanut butter chips onto the tops of the cookies
  • Bake at 350 for 9 minutes (cookies will be very soft)
  • Remove cookies from oven, press them down with the back of a spoon or spatula to flatten them a bit, return to oven for 2 minutes
  • Let cool and enjoy!
  • Store in airtight container (they get softer and taste even better the next day)
