Directions
Preheat oven to 350℉ (180℃) degree.
In a mixing bowl, cream butter and sugar with an electric mixer under high speed until smooth, 5 to 8 minutes. Beat in eggs and vanilla under low speed.
Mix together the flour, cocoa, baking powder, baking soda and salt in a medium bowl, gradually add to the creamed mixture.
Roll dough into 1½ inch balls. Place 3 inches apart on lightly greased baking sheets. Insert a wooden stick into each cookie.
Flatten with a glass dipped in sugar. Pinch top of cookie to form ears. For whiskers, press a fork twice into each cookie.
Bake for 10 to 12 minutes or until cookies are set. Remove from the oven, immediately press on candy corn for eyes and red-hots for noses.
Transfer to wire racks to cool. Serve and store at an air-tight container.
