Witch Cookies for Halloween

When I was a little girl, I always dressed up as a witch for Halloween. Always. Sometimes I was a scary witch and sometimes I was a a good witch like Glenda from “The Wizard of Oz” or even Samantha in “Bewitch.” I just loved Samantha’s adorable nose.

As I looked through my Halloween cutters this year trying to find something that would make a cute witch cookie, I felt hopeless. I couldn’t find anything I liked. I decided to contacted my friend Tracy over at Whisked Away Cutters and asked her if she would make a cute witch cookie cutter for me. She said yes and I sent her a sketch. Trixie the Good Witch Cookie was born.
