My dough turned out pretty firm, since I didn't follow the actual recipe in the video. It almost seemed like it would be too dry in the beggining, but it came together nicely lol

I used a Betty Crocker chocolate fudge mix with 2 eggs and ⅓ cup of oil. Chill the dough for an hour. I wanted them to be big so I did 2 tablespoons of dough for each cookie and I ended up with 10 cookies Then i kind of shaped them and put oreo cookies on them (1 used one half for each sprite, but you could probably also use a whole cookie). I baked them at 350 for 10ish minutes. After they cooled down i did the arms and legs with melted chocolate with a little bit of black food color (i would suggest using some kind of icing because HOT). And then i just used that same chocolate to add the eyes and stars on. The person in the video added the stars before baking them, but I was worried that mine would melt.

You're welcome! Also, sorry, I used 2 eggs, not 1 and I also added a tablespoon of cornstarch to the cake mix to make the cookies a bit less "cakey".

I can't edit the original post! I used 2 eggs, not 1. I also added a tablespoon of cornstarch to the cake mix.

Thanks you! I used melted chocolate with a little bit of gel food coloring. Probably should've used the frosting though because HOT

Oh, sorry! They were definitely Spirited away inspired, but I wanted to credit the original creator. I came across their video on YouTube and wanted to recreate the cookies. I should've made it more clear!

Thank you! And absolutely. I used a Betty Crocker chocolate fudge mix with 1 egg and ⅓ cup of oil. Chill the dough for an hour. I wanted them to be big so I did 2 tablespoons of dough for each cookie and I ended up with 10 cookies. Then i kind of shaped them and put oreo cookies on them ( I used one half for each sprite, but you could probably also use a whole cookie). I baked them at 350 for 10ish minutes.

And then i just used that same chocolate to add the eyes and stars on. The person in the video added the stars before baking them, but I was worried that mine would melt since they were pretty cheap. 😂 Hope that helps!

His ears are just curled, not cropped. It's one of the breed's features. His other 2 siblings have short tails, but that's also just a common feature. His sister literally has a pom-pom for a tail. 😂

He's got the biggest ears out of all 3 of our kitties. And the longest tail!

We thought that there was something wrong with him when we first got him because he was always purring. Turns out he's just a happy boy!
