Chocolate-Pepper Cookies- Halloween Style


These cookies were a childhood favorite of mine...you know when you grow up on something and you don't realize it's weird until you tell your friends about it? Yeah, well that happened here. Peeps were def afraid to try these babies which were actually a bit of a bitch to make. But it turned out to be a really fun Thursday night baking project. I used Martha Stewart's recipe which was almost identical to the one I had at home. To compensate for the fact that we rolled them out instead of chopping them from a log and rolling them in sugar, we added a mixture of cinnamon, black pepper, cocoa powder and sugar to the tops of the cookies before baking them. They only took about 5 mins to bake! (But about 3 hours from start to finish, so beware!) Thanks to Ali's Aunt Vicki for the totz adorbz Halloween cookie cutters! (There was no way I was gonna NOT use them to make Halloween treats).
