I got very enthusiastic about Halloween until Sarita was 15 or 16...when she stopped trick or treating and is now going out to grown up parties.... but this year I will have my carer, Nelma's kids, so when seeing the pages you all are making... got enthusiastic again and went looking for a couple of ideas.... and found this . Shame I wont be able to eat it, but will sure be fun making it...it isn't as difficult as it looks, is a red velvet cake....!!!!!! the recipe is at one of the blogs I 'm subscribed for food... if you want the recipe, just click on the image!!! Have you got any interesting (and doable!) Halloween recipes?
Oh, that reminds me: I got a brain Jello mold on clearance after Halloween last year. Can't wait to use it! I like a popcorn mix. It's popcorn, Halloween color M&Ms, candy corn (well, I leave it out but it's supposed to be in there lol), pretzels, and drizzled caramel and/or chocolate. Yum! Sometimes we put chocolate-covered popcorn in it, too.
update: wait, it is a red velvet cake? i thought it was "something???" suspended in red jello. i don't understand the brain part and what it is made out of - but i kind of need to throw up looking at it!
I have made a pasta dish called Bats & Cobwebs that the kids absolutely loved. It was also quick and easy to make. Basically, bow tie pasta (Bats), mozzarella chunks (Cobwebs), sauce, with or without sausages. It made a huge batch so the neighbor kids would sometimes stop by to eat before trick-or-treating. I'd even be roped into making it for school potlucks! It's a Martha Stewart recipe: https://www.marthastewart.com/341738/bats-and-cobwebs
I may never eat red velvet cake again.... or jello. Shutter.... I think I will go make a page instead.
FUN! I've made fun halloween cupcakes in the past- witches hats, ghosts, pumpkins. I've seen some pretty funny ones online- gross fingers. NOt sure I could eat it...
I made a kitty litter cake one year for a party. It's pretty gross. Well the cake is actually good but it looks disgusting. You can Google it to find a plethora of recipes. I have also made little fingers like these that won me a contest at work...lol
I only make cute things but I do witches hats which is chocolate striped cookies (turned over so the chocolate bottom is up). PUt a ring of icing (the kind you squeeze) and then put a chocolate kiss on top of the icing. I usually use either green or orange icing. https://www.allrecipes.com/recipe/228246/witches-hats/
I also love this Nutter Butter cookies drilled dipped in white chocolate for mummies https://www.allrecipes.com/recipe/2...eferringId=228246 referringContentType=recipe
um.... what the heck did I just open in this thread!? Goodness, I don't think I could eat that brain... or that mummy, or those hot dogs, or... nope. I'll eat the candy, k?
EWWWWW! I hate cat litter boxes!! That's totally disgusting. But I'm sure if any kid came across this thread they'd think it was great. The more disgusting, the better!
