Trick or Treat Chocolate Drop Cookies
July 14, 2026
Halloween party planning just got a whole lot cuter! I teamed up with a talented friend who designed the adorable party invitations below, and I created recipes to match. These Trick-or-Treat Drop Cookies are the perfect sweet treat to serve at all of your spooky celebrations this Halloween.
These soft and chewy chocolate cookies are packed with peanut butter and milk chocolate chips, buttery toffee bits, and festive Halloween jimmies. The edible witch hats make decorating super easy, and a sprinkle of flaky sea salt ties all the flavors together for the perfect sweet-and-salty bite.

Ingredients
- 1 package chocolate cookie mix (about 17.5 ounces)
- 1 egg
- 1⁄2 cup salted butter, melted
- 1 tablespoon cornstarch
- 3⁄4 cup peanut butter and milk chocolate chips (or use 3⁄8 cup each peanut butter chips and milk chocolate chips if you can’t find the combination bag)
- 1⁄2 cup Heath Toffee Bits
- 1⁄3 cup Halloween jimmies
- 24 edible witch hats
- Flaky sea salt, for topping
Instructions
- Preheat the oven to 350°F. Line two baking sheets with parchment paper.
- In a large bowl, stir together the cookie mix, egg, melted butter, and cornstarch until a soft dough forms.
- Fold in the peanut butter and milk chocolate chips, toffee bits, and Halloween jimmies until evenly combined.
- Using a 1-tablespoon cookie scoop, scoop the dough onto the prepared baking sheets, spacing the cookies about 2 inches apart. Gently press an edible witch hat into the top of each cookie.
- Bake for 8 to 9 minutes, or until the edges are set and the centers still look slightly soft.
- Immediately sprinkle the warm cookies with a pinch of flaky sea salt.
- Let the cookies cool on the baking sheet for 5 minutes before transferring them to a wire rack to cool completely.
