Devilishly Good Chocolate Cookies

When I was a kid Halloween was my favorite Holiday behind Christmas (it still is). I loved wandering the neighborhood collecting treats and the anticipation of wondering what would pop out and scare me at any moment. One thing I could count on every year was my last stop on my way home. There was a little old lady a few streets over that set up a buffet table out in front of her house with a crockpot full of hot apple cider and the rest of the table was lined in homemade cupcakes. We would always stop weary from a night of some tricks, collecting treats and have a cup of her hot apple cider and a cupcake. We would be sure to eat it on our way home because we had been warned against the evils of homemade treats and we knew our parents would take it away. The woman had lived their for years, and she made the best cupcakes, we figured if she was out to poison children on Halloween she wouldn’t be set up in front of her house year after year.


In recent years we have searched for treats to give out for Halloween that we felt good about, and we will NOT be the house that gives out boxes of raisins! I won’t go into all the reasons that we do not hand out regular candy (if you want to know more check this out) but one is its really expensive. So this year we are bringing back homemade treats. We have labeled our cookies with our store information and attached the link to this page. We have made these cookies with ingredients we feel good about and hopefully you feel good about giving to your children too!

Happy Halloween,
