Star Wars Wookie Cookies
Star Wars fans will love this yummy and simple Star Wars Wookie Cookies Recipe. A chewy oatmeal cookie with some chocolate frosting. The perfect addition to a party of movie night!
I was never a big Star Wars fan, but it is funny how life throws you curve balls. My kids LOVE Star Wars! Pretty much everything about it, so when my son asked for a Star Wars Birthday Party I was not shocked at all! I was shocked at how easy it was to make these Wookie Cookies which are way too cute for words!
I started with the simple oatmeal cookie recipe below. It is a great recipe that can be made gluten-free. Once the cookies were completely cooled that is when the fun started.
I just decorated the cookies with a smiley Wookie Face and, of course, an ammo belt. I used chocolate frosting for all of it except for the ammo band. It is chocolate icing with little pieces of white chocolate.
My decorating skills are very limited and I thought that these turned out pretty cute! Not perfect, but I wasn’t going for perfect. I have learned that sometimes my best is good enough. The kids were thrilled with my Star Wars Wookie Cookies so I figured they are a winner!
