Halloween Treats

This year I made Halloween treat plates. Partially because I just was itching to try some new treats and partially because I don't know if I will be doing one for Christmas this year. It sure is going to be a busy holiday season. I am doing a number of holiday bazaars and craft shows and I'm so excited. A little nervous but excited.

So I decided to go all out on my Halloween treats this year and it was so much fun! The kids loved it.
One of the treats I made was 'mummy cookies'. Super easy and really cute (you can see them on the left side of the plate).

I started by first melting some chocolate.
Then grabbed some Nutter Butters (we love them 'round here)
Dip.
Oh, and you'll need to make some eyes. I just used a condiment bottle to make them, like I did here.
Let the cookies cool.
Now use a little bit of melted chocolate to attach the eyes. This one looks a little cross eyed.
Then using the condiment bottle drizzle lines of white chocolate.
Isn't he cute? And oh, so delicious.

Then I used up those chocolate skeleton bones I made. Told you I would!

The base is a rectangle brownie with frosting and crumbled up brownies on top. I should have used chocolate frosting to make it look a little more life like. But I used what I had on hand.
I also added some fun hershey nuggets with fun Halloween labeles, and the label on the plate was a fun personal touch. I am totally using them again.
Happy Halloween!

  2. Seriously so cute. I love the idea of doing a Halloween treat plate instead of Christmas... SMART. I've totally given up all thoughts of doing anything in December this year (since I'm due the 7th)... fingers crossed I get my gifts made before then! But this would have been smart of me. Too bad it's not going to happen this oh-so-busy week of Halloween! OH well.
