The Story and Introduction
Halloween has always been one of my favorite times to bake with my little girl. Every October, we set aside a Saturday afternoon for simple, spooky treats that don’t take much time. That’s where Black Cat Oreos come in. They’re adorable, crunchy, and so easy to make, even kids can help without the stress.
This recipe brings me back to my childhood, when my grandmother and I made funny-looking cookies for trick-or-treat night. She believed food should feel fun, not fussy—and these Black Cat Oreos fit that spirit perfectly. They need just a few ingredients and a little imagination. You’ll have a tray of Halloween-ready cookies in minutes, with no baking required.
If you’re planning a party or just want a festive snack for the kids, Black Cat Oreos are the perfect choice. They’re crunchy, chocolatey, and irresistibly cute. Let’s grab the Oreos and get started!
