M&M’S® Coffin Surprises

Prep Time 15 min
Cook Time 15 min
Servings 12

Ingredients

  • 1 1/2 cups all-purpose flour
  • 1/3 cup cocoa powder
  • 1/4 tsp. baking powder
  • 1/4 tsp. salt
  • 1/2 cup butter, at room temperature
  • 1/3 cup granulated sugar
  • 1/4 cup brown sugar
  • 1 egg
  • 1 tsp. vanilla extract
  • 1 oz. chocolate chips, melted
  • 1/4 cup M&M’S® Milk Chocolate Ghoul’s Mix

Directions

  1. In small bowl, whisk together flour, cocoa powder, baking powder and salt; set aside.
  2. Using electric mixer, beat together butter, granulated sugar and brown sugar until light and fluffy, scraping down side of bowl as needed. Beat in egg; beat in vanilla until combined. Stir in flour mixture; beat on low speed just until combined.
  3. Roll out dough between 2 sheets of parchment paper into 1/4-inch thickness. Transfer to baking sheet; refrigerate for about 30 minutes or until firm.
  4. Preheat oven to 375°F. Cut out paper coffin template, about 2 1/4 inches long, and 1 1/2 inches at widest part of coffin; set aside.
  5. Using template, cut out 36 coffin cookies, rerolling scraps as needed (alternatively, use 2 1/2-inch coffin-shaped cookie cutter).
  6. Place cookies on parchment paper-lined baking sheets, about 1 inch apart. Cut out middle section of 12 cookies, leaving 1/2-inch border around edges (this will be the middle part of the coffin so the cookie can be filled; bake or reroll these pieces for cookies, if needed).
  7. Bake for 6-8 minutes or until tops are set. Let cool completely on rack.
  8. Arrange 12 uncut cookies on work surface. Brush edges with melted chocolate. Place 1 cutout cookie on top of each uncut cookie, lining up edges.
  9. Fill each coffin center with M&M’S® Chocolate Ghoul’s Mix. Brush edges with more melted chocolate; cap with remaining cookies to resemble lid of coffin. Let stand for 8-10 minutes or until chocolate sets.
Tip:

Substitute royal icing or chocolate buttercream frosting for melted chocolate, if preferred.
