Fudgy, brownie like cookies loaded with orange and brown Halloween chocolate chips and topped with colorful Halloween sprinkles from Wilton.
When I saw the orange and chocolate Halloween chocolate chips at the store I couldn’t resist buying them. I also couldn’t resist buying the fun Wilton sprinkles. My Halloween Snickerdoodles with Cinnamon Chips and my Whole Wheat Pumpkin Yeast Waffles got dressed up with Wilton Halloween sprinkles as well.
When you’re using colored chips, they often get hidden in the batter, which is a fun surprise when you bite into a cookie and find orange chips, but I wanted them to look really fun for Halloween, so I added orange, black and purple jimmies to the top. I just poured some of the jimmies in a custard cup and dipped the tops of the cookie dough in the jimmies before baking.

I fell in love with these cookies. They taste amazing. I used Lake Champlain Chocolates Unsweetened Cocoa, which added an extra richness to the cookie. Although these aren’t scary Halloween cookies, beware – one cookie is definitely not enough.
