Now I know that the shops will be full of cheap and delicious Halloween sweets and chocolates in the coming weeks but I can promise you that homemade treats are a great choice too. Whether you enjoy partying, trick or treating with the kids, or just a quiet night in, Halloween can be fun for everybody. These cookies are really fun to make, and even more fun to eat, kids and grown ups alike will LOVE these, no matter what you plan on doing.

Obviously these are a slightly less gross and scary bake than some I’ve seen. As much as I love severed finger cookies and bleeding brain cupcakes, I wanted something a little less gory to snack on and these triple chocolate spooky cookies are perfect. Inspired by a recent recipe by my queen, Nigella Lawson, I’ve wanted to make a version of these ever since I saw the original.

Think of those incredible double/triple chocolate chip cookies you can buy from bakery aisles in supermarkets, the lovely soft and chewy kind that are mega chocolatey. These triple chocolate spooky cookies are an even thicker, softer version, and they’re loaded with cocoa and chocolate chips. Almost like a mash-up between a chocolate chip cookie and a brownie, these are going to be a regular in my kitchen, eyeballs or not!

They’re also naturally gluten free thanks to the buckwheat flour, meaning they’re suitable for coeliacs or those with an intolerance. If you can’t find or don’t have any buckwheat flour, feel free to use plain wholemeal or white flour, this means they won’t be gluten free, but they’ll still taste just as yummy!

I found these really cute edible sugar eyeballs on Amazon at a great price, they don’t melt when pressed into the warm cookies, and really add a fun twist. You can make cyclops cookies, three-eyed cookies, you could even buy those tiny edible eyeballs and make each cookie a thick, blinking bundle of goggled-eyed chocolatey goodness!

The recipe is also really straightforward and is easily doubled if you’re feeding a crowd, or halved if you just need a night in to yourself with a plate of gooey chocolatey cookies.

These triple chocolate spooky cookies are so much fun to make and eat, they can be enjoyed warm too, just 10-20 seconds in the microwave will turn these delicious soft chocolate treats into a gooey dessert!
