Halloween is almost here and so are the costume parties! If you are looking for a cute, fun treat for your guests, but do not have enough time to look through Pinterest for hours, you are in the right spot!

 

  • Pumpkin Patch Brownies

These are so cute and simple to make. All you have to do is follow instructions on the brownie mix, bake, and add a little mellow-cream pumpkin on top for an adorable pumpkin patch.

 

  • Mummy Pretzels

Take some pretzel rods and dip them in some melted white almond bark. Lay them on a plate and drizzle with the remaining bark for a layered look. Add two or one eye with some black frosting or small chocolate chips and that’s a “wrap!” (I make myself laugh)

 

  • Fruity Pumpkins and Ghouls

For something simple and healthier, peel a small orange and then put a little piece of celery on the top. It will look just like a pumpkin! For ghosts, peel a banana and cut it in half. Then add chocolate chips with the pointed side into the banana for eyes!

 

  • Spider Cookies

This is so simple yet so tasty. Bake some cookies or buy some in the store, and make a dot of brown icing on the center. From there, make the frosting go out into six lines, resembling spider legs. Take a Rolo and put it on the center and you are done! (If you want to be a little extra, make some eyes on the Rolos with red or white frosting!)

 

There are so many quick and easy recipes to try, but I know these four are perfect for any party!
