Instructions
 

  • Preheat the oven to 350 degrees and line a baking sheet with parchment paper.

  • Roll both doughs, cutting the pumpkin and ghost from the natural dough and the bats and cats from the carob dough.

Notes

FOR CRISP, LONGER-LASTING COOKIES: After the initial baking time, reduce the heat of the oven to 170 degrees and continue to cook low and slow until crisp. This may take an hour or longer depending on your oven. The more moisture you remove by baking, the crispier and longer lasting these will be. Just keep an eye on them so they don't get too brown. Cool completely and store in an airtight container.
REMEMBER TO TREAT RESPONSIBLY. Moderation is key! :)
