Wordless Wednesday: Halloween Cookie Fail

Wordless Wednesday

Ok, so this will be almost wordless Wednesday. When getting ready for the Raingutter Regatta, I had to bring a treat to sell at the concession stand. I wanted to make something fun that people don’t always see. So I found these really cute swirled Halloween cookies. This is how they SHOULD have looked:

My reality was a little different. I had no parchment paper in the house so I used parchment triangles that I laid out on the cookie sheet. They stuck!! On top of that I was in a huge hurry and couldn’t refrigerate the dough as much as I probably should have. Here’s my cookies:

Cookie Fail Halloween Cookie FailThey still tasted good and I was able to save enough to sell some at the concession stand. I want to remake this recipe someday soon and make it turn out the right way!

    Bummer that they didn’t work out. They looked pretty though, the colors are super vibrant.

    How fun! They may not look exactly like the picture, but they still look great.

    I find that, when baking, you often still need to spray parchment with cooking spray to make sure things don’t stick.

    I need to try to make some cookies like this – I bet my kids would love them.

    I hate that these didn’t turn out for you! Hopefully next time they will! I want to try them with fall colors (red, green, brown and yellow).

  4. Rachel says

    They’re still pretty and I’m glad you salvaged some! They’re so vibrantly colored!

  5. Liz @ A Nut in a Nutshell says

    I honestly don’t think they’re bad at all. I think they’re really quite festive!

  6. Kat B. says

    October 30, 2013 at 1:01 pm

    I think they look good! Way better than I could make. And they tasted good so that is what matters.

  7. Allison Cooper says

    October 30, 2013 at 1:01 pm

    As long as they still tasted good, thats all that matters to me!

  8. robyn says

    You were way braver than I to even try making those! I bet they tasted delish and that’s all that matters in the end 🙂

  9. Donna says

    October 30, 2013 at 1:02 pm

    I don’t think they look bad at all… if I made them, I’m certain they would have looked a lot worse. 🙂

  10. Marina says

    October 30, 2013 at 1:02 pm

    Uh-oh. They actually don’t look all that bad, honest! And they tasted good right?

  11. Karen Coutu says

    October 30, 2013 at 1:02 pm

    I bet the children at the event still loved them! 😀

  12. Shasta says

    October 30, 2013 at 1:02 pm

    I actually think they look pretty awesome!

    They aren’t bad and they were still very festive for Halloween.

  14. Crystal Green says

    October 30, 2013 at 1:05 pm

    These really awesome to me. I am glad that they taste good too. I think they are a perfect combination of fall colors.

  15. Heather @ Work from Home with Kids says

    October 30, 2013 at 1:05 pm

    I really like these! They look like a lot of fun! Plus doing colors to go with the holiday would be fuN!

  16. Jenny says

    October 30, 2013 at 1:05 pm

    well if you can still eat them than that’s something xD At least you can say you tried~

  17. stephanie says

    October 30, 2013 at 1:14 pm

    i think its a cool idea

  18. Karen says

    October 30, 2013 at 1:22 pm

    I think your cookies turned out pretty good. They don;t look that bad to me. Did they taste good? That is what would matter to me.

  19. Megan @mnmspecial says

    October 30, 2013 at 1:22 pm

    Those are still awesome cookies, even if they all didn’t turn out right.

  20. Maryann says

    October 30, 2013 at 1:32 pm

    that made me chuckle.

  21. Tammy says

    October 30, 2013 at 1:53 pm

    I don’t know, they don’t look so bad! I don’t think I’m such a good cook that they would have turned out for me either LOL.

  22. Dawn Spickard says

    October 30, 2013 at 1:56 pm

    These still look good!! WAY better than what my attempt would have turned out like, I am sure! 🙂

  23. Carolyn G says

    October 30, 2013 at 2:22 pm

    As long as they taste good! They are a little off but still I like them and I would totally eat them!

  24. Anne - Mommy Has to Work says

    October 30, 2013 at 2:57 pm

    Taste is the biggest part so as long as they tasted good, all’s good!

  25. Marcie W. says

    October 30, 2013 at 3:15 pm

    They aren’t too bad at all and it’s great they were still tasty!

  26. Beeb says

    October 30, 2013 at 3:37 pm

    Honestly, I would have been stoked if mine turned out that good lol! 🙂

    I think they still look cool, but yeah, not quite food porn fodder… there are plenty of holidays coming up for you to try the technique on again.

  28. Jennifer @TheRebelChick says

    October 30, 2013 at 4:43 pm

    I don’t think they look too bad at all! Refrigerating the dough longer probably would have helped though 🙂

  29. Katie says

    October 30, 2013 at 5:40 pm

    As long as they tasted good that’s all that matters!

  30. Brandy says

    October 30, 2013 at 7:42 pm

    Those don’t look that bad to me. What am I missing?

    • Paula says

      October 31, 2013 at 2:32 pm

      They stuck to the pan and wouldn’t come off whole.

  31. Jenn says

    October 30, 2013 at 8:36 pm

    They didn’t turn out THAT bad. Kids will love ’em!

  32. Mellisa says

    October 30, 2013 at 9:17 pm

    I think you did awesome and I bet they tasted great.

  33. Kimberly says

    October 30, 2013 at 9:40 pm

    I think they look a lot better than mine would have. Good job. If you do try again, you’ll have to show us. Maybe you could use Christmas colors.

  34. Kelsey Apley says

    October 31, 2013 at 11:34 am

    I think these are still really cute, and not really to much of a fail. Glad they tasted good, because they look totally good to me!

  35. Penelope says

    October 31, 2013 at 2:29 pm

    I actually think they look really good, and by the way, everyone fails, but you are just supposed to show the ones from the batch that didn’t 🙂

      October 31, 2013 at 2:31 pm

      There were only about 16 salvageable!

    October 31, 2013 at 10:21 pm

    The colors are pretty spot on 🙂
