Ingredients:
- 2 1/2 cups all-purpose flour
- 1/2 teaspoon baking powder
- 1/4 teaspoon salt
- 1 cup unsalted butter, softened
- 1 cup granulated sugar
- 1 large egg
- 1 teaspoon vanilla extract
- Green and purple food coloring
- Candy eyeballs
- Assorted colored icing tubes
Instructions:
Mix the flour, baking powder, and salt together in a bowl with a whisk
In a different large bowl, beat the butter and sugar together until they are fluffy and light
Add the egg and vanilla extract and mix them in well
Mix the dry ingredients into the wet ingredients one at a time until a dough forms
Separate the dough into two pieces
Color one half with green food coloring and the other half with purple food coloring
Knead the colors in until they are completely mixed in
Put each color of dough in its own piece of plastic wrap and put it in the fridge for at least an hour
Warm the oven up to 350F 175C and put parchment paper on a baking sheet
To make marble-sized balls, take small amounts of both green and purple dough
Spread out the balls on the baking sheet by pressing each one down a little with your fingers
For 10 to 12 minutes, or until the edges are just beginning to turn golden
As soon as you take the cookies out of the oven, press candy eyes into them while they're still soft
Let the cookies cool for a few minutes on the baking sheet before moving them to a wire rack to cool all the way
Once the cookies are cool, use different colored icing tubes to give them monster features like mouths, scars, and stitches
Before you serve or store the cake, let the icing set
