2. Ingredients

2 ½ cups all-purpose flour
1 teaspoon baking soda
½ teaspoon salt
1 cup unsalted butter, softened

2 large eggs
1 teaspoon vanilla extract
½ cup Liquid Luck caramel (see Liquid Luck caramel)

Optional: Edible gold dust for decoration

3. Step-by-step Instructions for Making Polyjuice Potion Cookies

Preparing the Dough

In your stand mixer, combine the softened butter, brown sugar, and granulated sugar. Beat on medium speed until creamy and fluffy. Add eggs one at a time, then stir in vanilla extract. In a separate bowl, whisk together the flour, baking soda, and salt. Gradually add dry ingredients to the wet mixture, mixing just until combined.

Incorporating the Liquid Luck Caramel

Fold in half of the Liquid Luck caramel into the dough, creating swirls resembling a potion. This caramel adds a magical flavor and sticky texture that elevates these wizard cookies.

Adding Pretzel Wand Bits

Roughly crush pretzels into small bits and gently fold into the dough. These pretzel chunks mimic wand wood and provide a delightful crunch with every bite.

Shaping and Baking

Using a cookie scoop, portion the dough onto a baking sheet lined with parchment paper. Slightly press in a few pretzel bits onto the tops for visual magic. Bake in a preheated oven at 350°F (175°C) for about 10-12 minutes, or until golden around the edges.

Cooling and Decorating

Allow the cookies to cool for a few minutes on the baking sheet before transferring to a wire rack. For an extra wizard touch, sprinkle with edible gold dust to resemble potion ingredients.

4. Storage Tips for Your Wizard Cookies

Store your Polyjuice Potion Cookies in an airtight container at room temperature for up to 3 days. To keep them fresh longer, refrigerate for up to a week, or freeze for up to 3 months. Be sure to place parchment paper between layers to prevent sticking and preserve their magical appearance.

5. Serving Suggestions for Harry Potter Treats
