Spooky Recipes that will make your Halloween party a hit!

Every Halloween I try to find recipes for spooky dishes that I haven't seen before. I can't guarantee you've never seen these dishes before, BUT I can guarantee it'll keep your guests coming back for more.




Want a great dip for your candy apples or other types of spooky fruits you will be serving?

I present to you (edible) Ashtray dip. I know, I know. The look alone may turn you off, but come on. I'm all about freaking my guests out, and this recipe is sure to do it!

INGREDIENTS: 1/3 cup oreo cookie crumbs
1/3 cup powdered sugar
Candy Cigarettes
1 large NEVER USED ashtray

INSTRUCTIONS: 1. First, please clean out the ashtray with soap and water.
2. Next, you want to put the Oreo cookies into a food processor. You want to insure the cookies are a very fine dust!
3. Place the cookie crumbs at the bottom of your clean, dry ashtray.
4. Sift the powered sugar over the crumbs. Mix gently until the mixture resembles an ashtray.
5. Put you candy cigarettes into the mixture and enjoy!





Stuffed Roaches will add the perfect touch to your table, and creep the hell out of your guests. This recipe is so simple.

INGREDIENTS: 1/3 cup cream cheese, softened
1/4 cup walnuts, chopped semi-fine
20-30 dates, pitted

INSTRUCTIONS: 1. Combine the cream cheese and walnuts until mixed well.
2. Gently fill each date with the cream cheese and nut mixture.
3. Serve on a festive tray. Make sure you put some rubber roaches onto the platter as well. Label the dish as "Stuffed Roaches" or even "Fresh caught Roaches".




Slimy Worms Recipe This finger food is sure to taste good and be a hit with your guests. So cute. SO gross.


*Just a little note before we get started with the recipe, it is VERY important that you use a tall slim container to hold the straws. They have to be tight in the container or the gelatin will run back out before it can set. You can use a half gallon milk carton with the top cut off, or even the Tupperware containers used to hold cereal.


INGREDIENTS:
1 pkg. (6 oz) purple gelatin (raspberry or grape work well)
3/4 oz. unflavored gelatin
3 C. boiling water
3/4 C. whipping cream
green food coloring, as needed
100 plastic straws


INSTRUCTIONS: 1. In a medium, heat safe mixing bowl, stir together plain and flavored gelatin powders.
2. Pour boiling water over, stirring until gelatin is fully dissolved.
3. Allow gelatin to cool til only slightly warm.
4. Stir whipping cream into the gelatin mixture. Stir in green food coloring (you'll probably need 10 drops or more) until your gelatin gets that purpley-brown-grey color of earthworms.
5. With your 100 straws fully extended and snug in your chosen container, pour the gelatin mixture over the straws, filling the container.
6. Cover container and chill at least 8 hours. You can make them and store them this way up to two days in advance of your Halloween party.
7. Remove straws from their container (cutting or ripping a disposable container away is easiest).
8. With hot tap water running, place batches of 4-5 straws under hot running water for a couple quick seconds.
9. Remove "worms" from their straw casings, pressing with fingers. Set on waxed paper to set up.
10. Repeat until all worms are removed.
12. Chill, covered, on waxed paper at least 2 hours.
13. Serve in a chilled bowl, as pictured. Then watch all the kids gobble up this fun Halloween party food.
