Animal Crossing: New Horizons Fan Makes Spooky Cookies in Real Life

Key Takeaways

  • A fan baked real-life Spooky Cookies inspired by Animal Crossing.
  • The cookies are based on a DIY recipe from the game’s cooking update.
  • The same player has also made Fruit Pizza based on in-game recipes.

As a dedicated Animal Crossing: New Horizons enthusiast with countless hours invested in my island paradise, I must say that the creativity and dedication of this player leaves me utterly spellbound! Baking real-life Spooky Cookies based on an in-game recipe not only showcases their culinary skills but also underscores their passion for the game.


A devoted fan of “Animal Crossing: New Horizons” has prepared and decorated actual Spooky Cookies, which are part of the Spooky Set introduced in the game around three years back during Halloween. The game provides numerous craftable items, some themed for holidays, and witnessing these cookies baked in reality is delightful for fans of “Animal Crossing: New Horizons.

Back in November 2021, they unveiled the Spooky Cookies in the Animal Crossing: New Horizons Version 2.0 Free Update – the last big update the game ever got. Yet, even after three years since the final update, the die-hard fans are still going strong, forging friendships and beautifying their islands. Sometimes, this devotion extends beyond the screen, like with these tasty treats I baked myself, inspired by the enchanting world of Animal Crossing.

One big feature included in the 2.0 Free Update was the arrival of cooking in Animal Crossing: New Horizons, which brought forth a total of more than 80 different recipes that players can cook using their home-grown ingredients and in-game ovens. Reddit user FellowshipOfTheFeast decided to take one of those recipes into the real world, recently sharing an image of seven different vanilla sugar cookies shaped like bats, ghosts, and a variety of jack-o-lanterns in different colors, all decorated by hand with royal icing and plated to mirror the appearance of the in-game item.

Animal Crossing: New Horizons Player Shares Real-World Spooky Cookies

This player hasn’t just whipped up the Spooky Cookies as a first-time endeavor to replicate a dish from Animal Crossing: New Horizons in real life. They’ve also successfully made a Fruit Pizza mimicking its in-game version, expressing their intention to create more dishes inspired by the game’s culinary recipes. In fact, they prepared far more cookies than depicted in the post and humorously suggested sharing them with the Animal Crossing Reddit community, along with offering their actual recipes for both the cookies and royal icing.

Since its 2020 debut, the game “New Horizons” has kept a dedicated fanbase, but enthusiasts of the “Animal Crossing” series are eagerly anticipating the next installment, and they might not have to wait much longer. The mobile game “Animal Crossing: Pocket Camp” is set to close on November 29, which may disappoint fans of the franchise. However, Nintendo is discontinuing it to make space for an entirely new mobile “Animal Crossing” game. The upcoming title won’t be free-to-play like “Pocket Camp”, and some players are optimistic that a paid model could mean a more expansive game experience for the series.
