Ingredients
Scale
- 1 package Sweet Loren’s Sugar Cookie Dough
- Candy eyeballs (approx. 24 pieces)
- Candy corn (approx. 100 pieces)

- ½ cup white icing (homemade or store bought)
Instructions
- Preheat the oven to 350°F.
- Place Cookie Dough portions 2 inches apart on a baking sheet lined with parchment paper.
- Bake for 10-14 minutes. Since ovens vary, check at the shortest time and add time as needed.

- Use white icing to help adhere about 8 of the candy corn pieces to the top of each cookie, as seen in the picture.
- Dab a dot of icing onto each candy eye to help stick it to the cookie, placing 2 candy eyes onto each cookie.
