ROOOOOOOAAAARRRR!!!!!!! Bleep Bleep Bleep Bleep!........ DING! Ah, gotta love the sound of scarers doing their job. Looks like Mike and Sully have paid us a visit here in the kitchen to give us the best scare!

"We Scare Because We Care!"

The Equipment for both recipes you will need is:
1x Large Bowl/Stand Mixer
1x Spatula
3x Bowls
3x Spoons and 3x Knifes
1x-2x Backing Sheet, lined with Parchment Paper

Prep Time: 30-40 Minutes
Cooking Time: 11-13 Minutes

Ingredients:
1 CUP Butter
1 1/2 CUP Granulated Sugar
2 Large Eggs
2 3/4 CUP Flour
2 TSP Cream of Tartar
1 TSP Baking Soda
1 TSP Vanilla Extract
1/2 TSP Salt
Green, Blue and Purple Food Coloring
Large and Small Wilton Eye Candy

Procedures:

1) Prepare your baking sheet with parchment paper and Preheat your oven to 350 degrees F.

2) In a separate bowl, place your flour, salt, baking soda and cream of tartar and mix together.

3) In a large bowl or the bowl of your stand mixer, fitted with the paddle attachment, cream together your butter, sugar, and eggs.

4) Gradually, add your dry ingredients in with your wet ingredients.

5) Separate the dough into 3 dough balls. Wrap in plastic wrap and set in the fridge to chill or the freezer for less time. Afterwards, take out and either knead with flour or mix with a spoon/knife the colors green, blue, and purple.

6) Roll the dough into 3/4" dough balls. Green one needs to stay green. Combine pieces of Blue and Purple to make one dough ball.

*7) This is optional, roll each dough ball in sugar.

8) Bake in the oven for 11-13 minutes. Immediately after taken out of the oven, place in a single large eye candy for the Green (Mike) and two small eyes for the purple and blue cookie (Sulley).
