If you are not ready yet for Halloween and Halloween party, don't worry!
I decided to prepare you a small series of recipes and interesting things about Halloween.
Let's go!
What is the Halloween?
Halloween is a celebration observed in a number of countries on 31 October, the eve of the Western Christian feast of All Hallows' Day. Halloween is also known as Allhalloween, All Hallows' Eve or All Saints' Eve.
Every place has its own tradition. We all know about the next:
- Jack-o'-Lanterns
- Hit the Road, Jack
- Mischief Night
- Trick or Treat
I will write about this in my next posts.
Now, the first recipe for Halloween is Scary Halloween Cookies.

- Cut shapes out with the Halloween cutter.
- Place the cookies on the baking tray, leaving a gap between them in case they spread a little.
