Some Halloween recipes:
Simple: cut the pointy tips off of chicken wings, season with salt and pepper, and bake at 350 for about 35 minutes or until done. Baste with your favorite BBQ sauce and serve "bloody bat wings" to the kids.
Make Mac & Cheese with elbow macaroni. Serve as "Zombie Brains."
Make a salad with whole green and black olives. Use a frosting gun to squirt cream cheese, etc., into the black olives. Serve as "Corpse Eyeball Salad."
Not quite so simple: Mississippi Mud graveyard: You will need:
box of grahan crackers one stick non-diet margarine
one large box Jello instant chocolate pudding milk to prepare pudding
8 oz cream cheese 1 tsp vanilla 2 cups powdered sugar 1 cup Cool Whip, thawed
Heath Toffee Chips, chopped pecans, and chocolate chips, mixed to make "gravel"
Pepperidge Farms Milano cookies
tube of black icing with a fine tip
Preparation: Crush 3-4 cups of graham cracker crumbs; mix with 1 stick of margarine (melted) and press firmly into the bottom of a 9x13 cake pan. Bake at 350 for 15-20 minutes. Cool thoroughly.
Prepare the large box of chocolate Jello instant pudding according to package directions. Place in the refrigerator to set.
In a large bowl, combine 8 ounces cream cheese with 2 cups powdered sugar and 1 teaspoon vanilla. Whip with mixer on high speed until fluffy - about 5 minutes. Fold in 1 cup thawed Cool Whip. Spread the cream cheese mixture evenly over the graham crust. Spread the prepared chocolate pudding over the cream cheese. Spread the "gravel" over the chocolate "mud."
Using the frosting tube with fine tip, write "headstone" messages near one end of each cookie. Stick them upright in the "mud" and you have a yummy cemetary for your kids.
Really funny: Kitty Litter Cake You will need:
A brand-new, never-been-used kitty litter pan A brand-new, never-been-used plastic pooper scooper
one Spice cake mix one White cake mix 2 regular size boxes of Jello vanilla pudding, and milk to prepare one 12-ounce package vanilla wafers, crushed green food coloring Tootsie Rolls powdered sugar
Prepare the cakes according to package directions; cool thoroughly. Prepare the pudding according to package directions and place in refrigerator to cool. When cakes are cool, crumble them into the kitty litter pan, then add the vanilla pudding and mix.
Set aside 2 cups of vanilla wafer crumbs; mix the rest of the crumbs into the cake/pudding mixture.
Put the 2 cups of vanilla wafers in a plastic bag and add a few drops of green food coloring. Mix well. Continue until the crumbs are green.
Soften 6 Tootsie Rolls at a time on high in microwave for 8-10 seconds; shape to look like cat droppings. Place on top of cake mixture. Sprinkle with the green cookie crumbs, and dust with powdered sugar. Serve with the pooper scooper. Serves 24.
You can also add gummy worms, plastic flies, or anything else that will tidkle the kids' fancy.
Candy corn pizza: You will need some frozen pizza dough, a jar or can of pizza sauce, and three COLORS of cheese: white, yellow and orange. Get whatever kinds of cheese you like, as long as you have those three colors. Pre-bake the pizza crusts. Spread lightly with pizza sauce. Make a circle of orange cheese around the outer part of the circle of crust, then a circle of yellow cheese, then cover the center of the crust with the white cheese. Bake at 325 for about 10 minutes, until the cheese is melted and runny. Cut into wedges to make triangles that look like candy corn.
"Frozen Ghosts" You will need ripe bananas, popsicle sticks, a tube of black icing with a fine tip, and melted white chocolate. Peel the bananas, cut each one across the middle into two halves, and insert a popsicle stick into the flat (cut) end of each banana half. Put the banana pieces on a clean baking sheet, cover, and put in the refrigerator. When the bananas are cold, melt the white chocolate. Hold the end of the popsicle stick and dip the banana in the melted chocolate. Use a toothpick to make two small holes for eyes and a curved line (smiling or frowning) for the mouth. When the chocolate is solid, fill in the eyes and mouth with the black icing.
Sausage/hotdog "mummy" You will need: Your favorite hotdogs or similar-sized sausages Canned bread sticks; enough to have one bread stick per hotdog Garlic powder or salt Grated Parmesan or Romano cheese Yellow mustard in a squirt bottle
Open the bread sticks and carefully separate them. Starting at one end of the hotdog, wrap a bread stick in a spiral up the length of the hotdog. Leave a small open part near one end; this is for the mummy's "eyes." Make sure both ends are covered.
Place the wrapped hotdogs on a lightly greased baking sheet. Sprinkle with garlic powder and/or grated cheese. Bake at 350 until the breadstick "bandages" are golden brown. Before serving, put two dots of mustard in the space that was left open - those are the mummy's "eyes."
