Equipment

  • Baking sheet
  • Parchment paper
  • Cup with a flat bottom
  • Frosting knife

Ingredients

  • 1 box sugar cookie mix (which requires one egg and one stick of butter).
  • 1 tub Purple Funfetti frosting (it comes with these sprinkles!)
  • 1 bag Trolli sour octopus candies (as seen in the video)
  • 1 bag Candy melts
  • 1 package Candy eyeballs

Instructions

  • Make rounded dough forms on a cookie sheet about 2-3 inches in size.
  • Gently press down on them with the bottom of a flat cup (as seen in the video). This gives them the perfect sugar cookie shape!
  • Bake the sugar cookies according to the directions on the box on a baking sheet lined with parchment paper. Let them cool.
  • Once cooled, put a layer of purple Funfetti frosting on top.
  • Sprinkle the outer edge with sprinkles.
  • Melt the candy melts according to the package directions.
  • Put a tiny dab of the candy melts on the octopus/”monster’s” head.
  • Place a candy eyeball on top and let it dry/harden
