Happy Halloween!
If you're looking for some last minute Halloween desserts, here are some easy/delicious ideas! Pumpkin Pie Dip (surprisingly good, even for people who aren't crazy about pumpkin pie!), dipped Oreos, candy corn cookies, and for a healthier alternative - apple teeth (looks kinda gross, but the kids think they're hilarious). The recipe for this is so simple: Mix together one 15oz can pumpkin, one 3.4oz package of instant vanilla pudding, and 1tsp of Pumpkin Pie Spice. Stir in one 8oz tub of Cool Whip until blended. Refrigerate for at least one hour to chill. - Yep, that's it! It can be served with so many things - cookies, apple slices, graham crackers, Nilla wafers, etc. So delicious! My kiddos are also obsessed with dipped Oreos this time of year and it's a great project to make with them! Open up your Oreo and put some type of stick in there (popsicle stick, sucker stick, etc) - I like to use a little extra melted chocolate or frosting like glue to make the Oreo stick back together better. Melt some candy melts or some chocolate in the microwave and then dip your Oreo until fully covered. Decorate and let dry (you can either do this on wax paper or I like to just stand them upright in a cup). You can individually wrap them for a party, keep them open for a dessert tray, or even make a bouquet out of them. :) Decorated cookies are always a go-to for me if I'm short on time. You can mold your sugar cookie dough into a candy corn shape and then decorate with yellow, orange, and white - or simply use candy corns to decorate cinnamon sugar snickerdoodles! These kind of creep me out, but the kiddos love them and they are a decent alternative for a "healthier" treat if you want to scale back the sugar a bit. Just take apple slices, spread with peanut butter, and put some mini-marshmallows in as teeth. The kids will eat these up!

AuthorI love writing romance novels, editing other people's novels, planning parties (heavy on the theme food!) and watching movies. Cooking has also become a passion of mine (because you can't have a proper party without food!) and I love finding new hobbies when I can squeeze them in. Archives
