Unicorn Poop Cookies

I still don’t understand but poop seems to be fascinating to kids. If you have a daughter (or a son that loves mythical creatures) Unicorn Poop may be all the rage. That was the idea behind these Unicorn Poop Cookies.

Don’t let the name scare you, these are delicious and free from any real poop! 😉

Now you’ve probably seen about a dozen different ways to make Unicorn Poop Cookies and that’s okay! I say, the more colorful poop cookies the better!

Side note, we have totally made Unicorn Poop Cupcakes before. You can find that recipe here.

I also want to add that these are more like Unicorn Poop Thumbprint Cookies. You can customize this recipe to your liking. For example, if you have a peanut allergy, instead of using Peanut Butter, you can use SunButter or Almond Butter.

Unicorn Poop Cookies

What You Need:

• 1/4 C unsalted sweet cream butter
• 1/2 C sugar
• 1/2 C brown sugar, packed
• 1 C peanut butter
• 1/4 C shortening
• 1 large egg
• 1 1/4 C flour
• 3/4 tsp baking soda
• 1/2 tsp baking powder
• 1/4 tsp salt
• 24 Hershey Kisses Milk Chocolate, unwrapped
• 1 small ice cream scooper
• 1 cookie sheet fitted with parchment paper
• Light green, Light Blue, Hot Pink, Yellow, Purple, and Orange Nonpareil’s (you can also use Rainbow Nonpareil’s)

How to Make Unicorn Poop Cookies:

First, Preheat the oven to 350 degrees.

Next, place parchment paper onto a cookie sheet and set aside.

Using a standing mixer, cream together the butter, sugar, brown sugar, and shortening and mix until combined.

Add in the egg and mix until combined.

In a large bowl, using a whisk mix in the flour, baking powder and salt.

Gradually add in the flour mixture into the wet mixture until combined. Be careful not to add it all at once or you’ll get a big dust cloud and have flour all over your kitchen.

Using a ice cream scoop, scoop some cookie dough into your hands and roll into a ball.

Pour your Nonpareil’s into a bowl and mix them until combined.

Roll your cookie dough ball into the nonpareils until coated.

Repeat the steps for 11 more cookie dough balls.

Bake in the oven for 8-10 minutes.

Once pulled out of the oven place Hershey Kiss into the cookie and let cool for a few minutes.

Place cookies onto a wire rack to cool.

Serve and Enjoy!
