Loquacious Posted October 6, 2009 Report Share Posted October 6, 2009 Halloween is almost here and I have already started gathering my recipes for the annual cakewalks that take place in our community. I thought I would share a really quick recipe that has a cute end result that kids really love. Your end result is going to be an edible witch hat! You are going to need a bag of Keebler Fudge Shoppe Fudge Stripes (generic brand works just a well), a bag of Hershey's Kisses, a tube of chocolate decorating icing and a bright color tube of frosting as well (I prefer orange, red or green). You can set out wax paper or a cookie sheet to work on then take your Fudge Stripes and turn them upside down on your work area. You want the solid chocolate side staring back at you. Now take the chocolate decorating frosting and outline the hole in the center of your Fudge Stripe cookie. Take a Hershey Kiss and place on top of the icing so that the icing sticks the Kiss to the cookie. Now you have a witch hat! Take your tube of bright colored frosting and draw some strands of ribbon or straw around the hat and top it off with a bow if you like. These are really cute, inexpensive and quick!

knchatty Posted October 8, 2009 Report Share Posted October 8, 2009 This sounds like a fun, exciting and yummy treat to make with your kids. Is it messy? We usually make Rice Krispy treats with gummy worms coming out of them for Halloween treats. I love goodies! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
annika3in1 Posted October 9, 2009 Report Share Posted October 9, 2009 I'd never thought of rice krispie treats with gummy worms! How do you insert the gummy worms? That sounds yummy. I don't eat dirt, and I know that that's a common use for gummy worms. Mmmmmm... I'm excited just thinking about cooking them. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
knchatty Posted October 9, 2009 Report Share Posted October 9, 2009 We just mix up the batch of rice krisipie treats and then toss in gummy worms. It's really neat to see them. Most of the time they stick out, to make it look like they are crawling out. Another favorite of the kids at our Halloween parties are the pretzel sticks (the big ones). We put frosting on the ends and then dip them in orange and black sprinkles. They look spooky. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
annika3in1 Posted October 13, 2009 Report Share Posted October 13, 2009 Thanks knchatty! I can't wait to try the rice krispy treats. I probably won't try the pretzels-- I bet the frosting is creamy But, they sound really cool, like witches' wands, or something. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Loquacious Posted October 23, 2009 Author Report Share Posted October 23, 2009 These do get a tad messy yet they are yummy! It is well worth the mess if you ask me and if you eat them quickly enough then it isn't as messy. We also make the rice treats with worms and such. Another one of my favorite Halloween treats is popcorn balls with candy corn in them! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Irelyn Posted October 31, 2009 Report Share Posted October 31, 2009 I am making monster toes with macaroni and cheese and a veggie. You get the little smokies, they look like mini sausages and cut a little notch in the end, this will be the toenail. You take tortillas and cut them into strips then wrap them around the sausages so the notched end is sticking out. Bake them at 350 for about 9 minutes then put ketchup where you notched it out! I am also going to freeze gummy worms and bugs into ice cubes to put into their juice! Happy Halloween! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
