Take note
Be careful not to burn yourself when handling hot baking trays, and make sure to let the cookies cool before enjoying. Also, resist the urge to use real cauldrons in the baking process; we're sticking to the cookie variety here!

1

Gather your magical ingredients

To make these enchanting cookies, you will need 2 ¼ cups of all-purpose flour, 1 teaspoon of baking powder, ½ teaspoon of salt, 1 cup of unsalted butter (softened), 1 ¼ cups of granulated sugar, 1 large egg, 1 teaspoon of vanilla extract, and a pinch of fairy dust (optional).

2

In a mixing bowl, whisk together the flour, baking powder, and salt. In a separate bowl, cream together the softened butter and granulated sugar until light and fluffy. Add the egg and vanilla extract, then slowly mix in the dry ingredients until a magical cookie dough forms. If you have some fairy dust on hand, sprinkle it into the dough for some extra enchantment!

3

Shape your cauldrons

Take a small portion of the cookie dough and roll it into a ball. Gently press the ball down to form the cauldron shape, with a rounded bottom and a slightly flatter top. Use your fingers or a small spoon to create a hollow center in the top of each cauldron for that magical bubbling effect.

4

Bake the spellbinding cookies

Preheat your oven to 350°F (175°C). Place the cauldron-shaped cookies onto a lined baking sheet, spacing them about an inch apart. Pop the tray into the oven and let the cookies bake for 10-12 minutes, or until the edges turn golden brown. Keep an eye on them, we don't want any burnt witches!

5

Decorate with edible magic

Once your cauldron cookies have cooled, it's time to add some edible magic! Melt some dark chocolate or black icing and carefully drizzle it over the cauldrons to create that iconic cauldron look. If you want to go all out, top each cauldron with a mini marshmallow or candy frog. Let your creativity run wild!
