These cookies are so cute! I didn't use the popsicle sticks, but everyone who saw them thought they were great. They were not difficult at all - I made them about an hour before I left to a Halloween treat exchange.

Five stars for the "cute" factor and Four stars for the actual cookies overall taste. This is a good cookie. I rolled the dough into balls and then chilled in the refrigerator for 10 minutes. You won't be able to flatten and shape them if the dough is warm. Make sure you make the "whiskers" pretty deeply with the fork or they will disappear when baking. Big hit with the kids.

Excellent recipe! Use Dutch Process Cocoa and you will LOVE the flavor. These are both tasty and adorable. Great for sending to school with the kids for Halloween! Thanks for the recipe. We will definitely make them again!

This cookie was good and fun to make with the kids, but i didnt think it had that good chocolate taste that i was looking for. It seemed a little bland. If you want a really chocolatey cut out cookie try the Best Ever Chocolate Cut out cookie recipe from this site.

These were so great!! They really did stay on the sticks, no matter how big I made them. They were really cute, too. My brothers couldn't help themselves and were eating one after the other. I also brought some to a couple of friends and they thought they were great!! :D The whole thing was quite easy, whew!!! I did sub the nose for mini M&M's instead. You got to make sure they are in there. Or they will fall off and squish if you try to put it back on. Anyways..This recipe is AWESOME and I would love to make it again!! THANKS.

I thought this recipe was fantastic! I'm a huge fan of anything chocolate, plus I loved making the cookie into a work of art! The only thing I did differently was instead of using candy corn and red hots I used reeses pieces for the eyes and nose. I love that peanutbutter and chocolate combo. I just cut the pieces in half and inserted them cut side down into the dough before baking. That way the eyes still have that slanted look. But that is just a personal preference! Thanks for this fun recipe!

This is a really good recipe. My daughter loves them, and has brought one to school for her friends and class neighbors. My neighbor had a party, and she cooked them alone, and everyone there said it was a hit!!

Good flavor, but the dough was very sticky and hard to work with. I even chilled the dough, and it was still hard to shape. Very "cakey" cookie.

A Very easy and yummy cookie! These took no time at all and were delicious. The batter is thick and I agree with the other reviewer kind of mousse like or fudgey. The cookies are more cake-like which for me was a bonus. I shaped them with the bottom of a glass and found it made perfect little "faces" because the edges curled up slightly. I too used M&M's for eyes and red hots for noses (couldn't find candy corn at the store) Just adorable and again, so easy.

These were really easy to make. It took no time at all to make them. And my kids love them too. They don't like the red hot "noses" but thats ok they just don't eat the candies.

These cookies are fun and easy to make with anyone over 5 years old. They are not as time consuming as they look. My son loves them and is bringing them to class on Halloween. Enjoy.

These cookies turn out absolutely adorable. I made them for a first grade class party and they were a hit. I did not use butter. I used margarine and just refrigerated the dough an hour or two before forming the cats with no problems. I rolled the dough into a ball in my hand then smashed the dough with my hands instead of the glass, then layed the cookie on the cookie sheet to pinch and form the ears.The dough looks like chocolate mousse and tastes like icing. After the cookie is baked it tastes a like chocolate cake but in the form and consistency of cookie. I did not use the popsicle sticks because I didnt have any and they were just as cute. I also used M&Ms for the nose instead of red hots, and used a pink YoGo for the mouth. Will definetly make this recipe again.
