    A pumpkin spiced cookie pizza frosted with a fluffy frosting and filled with halloween candies.

    This post and Halloween Cookie Pizza recipe were created for #HalloweenTreatsWeek! I received samples from some of the sponsor companies, as always opinions are mine alone.

    This Halloween Cookie Pizza is made with a pumpkin spiced sugar cookie and vanilla flavored icing. The cookie is firm, yet not hard and the icing is creamy and fluffy. Perfect for nestling all those Halloween candies on top of.

    Our sponsors are offering a fabulous giveaway at the very end of this post! Be sure to scroll all the way down to the end of the post to enter! 

    Pumpkin Spice Halloween Cookie Pizza

    Halloween is such a fun and spooky time of year and I am excited to be a part of HalloweenTreatsWeek hosted by Angie of Big Bear's Wife and The Southern Halloween Queen! Get ready for a week of ghastly treats coming your way!

    Pumpkin Spice Halloween Cookie Pizza

    I remember as a child, my mom driving us around to go trick or treating. We grew up in the country, so to go knocking on doors and saying "trick or treat!" was in the hands of my mom.

    When you live in the Northern  NY area, you are likely to either be one of the two things when trick or treating: Gastly Hot, or Frighteningly Freezing! I have trick or treated when it was super hot out and have traipsed in the knee-deep snow just to collect my goodies! My favorite treat was from a neighbor who made homemade popcorn balls that were the best. A treat worth traipsing through the snow for!

    What kind of Halloween mom are you? Do you like to make or eat the Halloween Cookie Pizza? Maybe you like to do both?

    I will however admit, I was not the creative Halloween mom. Sure, I took my kids out trick or treating and for me it was easy because we lived in a village and/or their Dad would take them so I could stay home for the few kids who dared to walk up our dead-end road and say trick or treat at our door!

    While I wasn't the exemplary mom who made their kids Halloween costumes, I was the mom who loved to make homemade goodies for them. Baking always was my thing. Cookies, brownies, cakes, cupcakes. You name it, I loved to make it and I loved to make it from scratch! By the time my kids were of trick or treating age, however, homemade treats were not acceptable to give to kids coming to your door.  So, I kind of fell off the treat making wagon a long time ago.

    Then when Kristina (my former daughter in law) came into my life, Halloween came alive again! That girl loved herself some Halloween!! I even hosted an Adult Halloween Party with her back at the beginning of my blog days.  I love how she brought that passion back in me and I hope she still loves Halloween as much today as she did then. I'm thinking it's likely!

    Make your Halloween Cookie Pizza a success with these tips!

    1. Your cookie needs to be firm enough that it will not break and crumble easily. This cookie is perfect. It's soft yet not as hard as a rock!
    2. Make a creamy frosting, rather than a frosting that will flatten out or firm up. You want that pillowy bed of frosting to nestle your decorations into.
    3. When cutting your cookie pizza use a large, very sharp knife and press down into the cookie. Don't try using a pizza cutter. Just because this is a "pizza" it's not cookie cutter friendly.
    4. Top them with a lot of Halloween candy decorations. I guarantee that will make your cookie the star of the party!
