Hi guys, HAPPY HALLOWEEN!
Hope you're having a great evening!
๐ ๐ป ๐ฏ๏ธ ๐ ๐ฆ ๐ ๐ป ๐ฏ๏ธ ๐ ๐ฆ ๐ ๐ป ๐ฏ๏ธ ๐ ๐ฆ ๐ ๐ป ๐ฏ๏ธ ๐ ๐ฆ
As part of our Halloweek ๐ I wanted to get some discussion going about 'spooky baking'! Specifically, Halloween cookies.
Sadly, my oven needs to be checked out by the gas man as when I was heating up a frozen pizza yesterday, the gas flames reached too high and burned half of it no matter how much I tried to adjust the heat. However, once the issue has been fixed I will be baking some spooky post-Halloween gingerbread men.
You might know from earlier discussions that I'm not much of a cook (yet...) so I have pretty much no idea what I'm doing when it comes to baking gingerbread cookies. I did it with my mum once or twice.... but I was 5-6 years old and all I remember is eating the dough.
@TallTrees you baked a spooky cake, didn't you? I saw an awesome photo in another thread. Anyone else here bake anything for Halloween? Any pumpkin soup etc.? Anyone make any cookies?
I can't use the oven yet, however, I can plan ahead. I'd love to hear some ideas for what you'd like my gingerbread cookies to look like once I make my first batch hopefully in the next week or so. I'll post some photos once they've come out of the oven. If you have any tips/tricks on how you make your gingerbread cookies delicious (or at least somewhat palatable) please do let me know, I'd really appreciate it!! Also, do you recommend making the dough from scratch or using one of those ready-made kits?
My first thought is to try make a pumpkin shape out of gingerbread which sounds easy enough - what else should I make? Any spooky characters or item shapes (or scary faces etc) you think could work? Let me know, I'll collect ideas in a list and try make them the best I can and will share a photo here once done so you can see the results.

Eyes on stalks on a cake sounds great @TallTrees
Yeah it's a shame, I had planned on starting to cook a bit more in the next few days with the oven but will have to wait. Apparently a new oven is in order so I will wait a few weeks. In the meantime, I will make a plan for the Halloween cookies, although at that point it will be towards the end of November, so they will just be a batch of randomly creepy gingerbread monsters.
Still fun to make I'm sure.
@Mi-Amigo Those look great!! Thanks for adding a photo! They don't look too difficult if I plan the "design" in advance. Thanks they've been added to my list for near-future baking!
