Spider Web Pretzels
Ingredients
- Semi sweet chocolate chips and white chocolate chips
- Pretzel sticks
- Pastry / Icing bags
- Parchment paper
Instructions
Create a star shape on parchment paper with the pretzel sticks, and repeat for each one.
Melt chocolate in the microwave in short increments and stir until it is completely melted, taking caution to not burn it.
Put the chocolate into an icing bag and snip off the end so you can squeeze the chocolate out onto the center of the pretzel group. Slowly spiral the chocolate until you reach the edge of the pretzels.
Allow them to dry for at least 1 hour in the fridge before removing from parchment paper.
Ingredients
- 4 cups guacamole
- 1/4 cup mexican crema or sour cream
- Lime juice
- 2 pitted black olives
- Blue corn tortilla chips
- Pastry / Icing bags
Instructions
Fill a bowl with guacamole and smooth the top with a spoon or spatula. Next, fill a pastry bag with sour cream, and thin it out with lime juice if necessary.
Spider Web Guacamole
Pipe 4 circles onto the guacamole, and use the tip of a knife to pull lines the lines out, creating a spider web pattern.
To create the spider, slice an olive in half lengthwise to create the body. Slice the remaining half lengthwise into 8 spider legs to complete the spider! Surround the bowl with tortilla chips and enjoy!
Ingredients
- Vegetable oil
- 2 cups all purpose flour
- 1/2 teaspoon baking powder
- 1/4 teaspoon salt
- 1/2 cup unsalted butter
- 1 cup sugar
- 1 large egg
- 1 teaspoon vanilla extract
- 1/2 cup raspberry jam
Instructions
Preheat oven to 325F and spray a baking sheet with vegetable oil.
In a medium bowl whisk the flour, baking power and salt and set aside.
Witch Finger Cookies
Using a stand up mixer with a paddle attachment, beat the butter and sugar until it is light and fluffy. Beat in the egg and vanilla until smooth, and finally add in the flour mixture until the dough begins to form.
Roll pieces of dough into 5 inch long “fingers” that are about 1/2 inch thick. Press a sliced almond to the end of each finger to create a fingernail, and make several horizonal cuts in each finger to create knuckles, and mold the dough to create the ideal shape!
Bake for 16-18 minutes, until light golden. Transfer to a wire rack and cool completely!
In a small saucepan heat the jam over low heat, about 2 minutes. Dip the blunt ends of the fingers into the warm jam and arrange on a platter to serve!
Worms In Dirt
Ingredients
- Plastic cups
- Crushed Oreos
- Chocolate pudding mix
- Cool whip topping
- Gummy worms
Drunk In A Graveyard
Ingredients
- Cups or cocktail glasses
- Crushed Oreos
- Chocolate pudding mix
- Gummy worms
- Dark Creme De Cacao
- Heavy cream
- Milano Cookies
Worms in Dirt has got to be one of the easiest and most popular Halloween themed treat that kids love! However, we have added a simple twist to make this kid friendly dessert one that adults can enjoy too.
Kid friendly Worms in Dirt is created by putting a layer of crushed Oreos at the bottom of a cup. Then fold the cool whip in with the pudding mix until the color is consistent, and use that as a second layer. Repeat by adding a third layer of crushed Oreos, and a fourth layer of pudding mixture. Top with more crushed Oreos and gummy worms before serving!
To create an “adults only” version of Worms in Dirt, just add Dark Creme de Cacao and heavy cream to the pudding mix to make Drunk in a Graveyard. The mixture may take more time to set due to the added liquor and cream, and is best left overnight in the fridge. To make the mixture darker, you can add cocoa powder. Add crushed Oreos for the first layer, the spiked pudding mixture as the second layer, and repeat once more. Before serving, top with crushed Oreos and gummy worms. Create the tombstones using Milano cookies and melted chocolate for the writing!
