Scooby Snacks Cookies Recipe

This Scooby snacks cookies recipe was inspired by a book we got as a gift and it ended up being so fun to make with the kids!  Plus, the cookies were tasty too 😉

Scooby Snacks Cookies

When the twins were born, my sister-in-law gave us Scooby-Doo! Encyclopedia because of a character named Frederick (which is what we named the boy of our boy-girl twins).

Mixing the dough for the Scooby snacks cookies

The other day, Ben was watching a Scooby-Doo episode and then found the Encyclopedia, so we’ve been all about Scooby-Doo in our house lately.  In the back of the book, there is a recipe for Scooby Snacks.  Ben said he wanted to make them, so we gave it a shot!

The dough for the Scooby snacks cookies

What ingredients do you need to make your own Scooby snacks?

You’ll use a variety of ingredients that you’re used to seeing in any and all baking recipes, but a few notes about the ingredients more unique to this recipe.

  • All-purpose flour – you can use a regular ap flour, or a gluten free baking flour
  • Oatmeal – I would suggest grinding up the oats to make an oat flour
  • Butter – you’ll need one stick, or 8 tablespoons (salted or unsalted is ok)
  • Sugar – these cookies aren’t overly sweet, so feel free to add a little extra
  • Cocoa powder – this is what gives the color the yummy chocolate brown color
  • Eggs – regular large eggs are used in this cookie recipe
  • Vanilla extract – I like using a good quality vanilla extract like this one.
  • Walnut extract – the most unique ingredient that gives the cookies a nice nutty flavor, I just buy one off Amazon (here)

Use fun cookie cutter shapes to cut the cookies out of the dough.

The cookies turned out to be great.  They are a ‘healthy’ tasting cookie; not too sweet – which is how I like them.  They are very mild in flavor, but at the same time I couldn’t stop eating them, lol.

How do you make your own Scooby snacks?

  1. Preheat the oven.  Grease or line a large baking sheet.
  2. Mix together all ingredients, until well combined.
  3. Roll or flatten the dough, then cut into desired shapes.
  4. Bake for 8 minutes.
  5. Cool and enjoy!

Scooby Snacks cookies recipe

To be honest, I was very surprised when I first read the recipe because the cookies contain cocoa powder and dogs should not eat cocoa powder or chocolate because it speeds up their heart rate and contains caffeine.  The recipe does come with a warning in the book which says ‘don’t let this recipe fall into the wrong hands-or paws’ – still an odd choice I thought.

But, this is a recipe for kids, not dogs, so we’re all in the clear!  In case you’d like to make these dog friendly, simply replace the cocoa powder with 1/3 cup whole wheat flour.

And if you want to be super Mom and get a little crafty, I have a simple project you can do to store your cookies.

  • I just googled a picture of Scooby Doo, cut it out and put it on a jar – it’s as simple as that!  The jar itself is from Crate and Barrel.  This simple clip art project was so thrilling to Ben, so I was more than happy to do it.

    […] Ben came in to the bathroom as I was getting ready one morning. It was too early so I told him to just play until I finished. He went into all the drawers and got out all the combs/brushes/etc. And lined them up, then he instructed me to sit on the floor and that he was going to give me a hair “style” lol. It was too funny. Then he did the same with Nick, but he made Nick read him his Scooby Doo book and forgot about the hair style. He informed me that it was then “time to go make Scooby snacks” […]

Then, as I was washing dishes late at night, my French press slipped through my hands and shattered 🙀😭😫

I just kept repeating a German phrase my mom used to say “sherben bringen Glück” which means “shards bring luck” (it’s usually applied to like porcelain- which is why plates and mugs are thrown on the ground ahead of weddings... but my mom would apply it to glass/plates/whatever broke) 
⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀
So...I’m going to go ahead and make some sweet cream, bust out my old coffee machine until the new French press arrives <-because apparently now I’m someone who makes French press coffee every morning!

Are you team ♥️ anchovies, or team 🤢 anchov Are you team ♥️ anchovies, or team 🤢 anchovies? 
⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀
I used to be 🤢 
⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀
They sounded kinda gross if you asked me. Canned fish? No thank you. 
⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀
Then I was part of a cookbook club (remember social activities.. 😭) and I cooked a recipe with anchovy breadcrumbs. It completely changed my perspective and thoughts on them as an ingredient. 
⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀
Now whenever I encounter someone who is team ♥️ I rave and rave at them about miraculous anchovy breadcrumbs. 
⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀
They’re awesome on roasted cauliflower or on pasta 😘
⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀
So I gotta know? Are you team anchovies ♥️ or 🤢?!?
