Halloween Confetti Cookies #HalloweenTreatsWeek

Oct 07, 2020

This post and recipe was created for #HalloweenTreatsWeek! I was sent samples by some of the sponsor companies but as always opinions are 100% mine.

Halloween Confetti Cookies – soft and chewy sugar cookies rolled in Halloween sprinkles. The perfect sweet and spooky treat!

It’s #HalloweenTreatsWeek hosted by the wonderful Angie of Big Bear’s Wife!

One of my favorite treats to make for every holiday is a confetti cookie. They’re basically just soft sugar cookies (my favorite!) rolled in whatever holiday sprinkles.

So these Halloween Confetti Cookies are rolled in a Halloween sprinkle mix that had candy eyeballs throughout and they just turned out so cute!

Candy Corn Fudge – white chocolate fudge with mini candy corn and salted peanuts. The perfect sweet and salty treat for Halloween!

You guys, it’s #HalloweenTreatsWeek!

The lovely and incredibly talented Angie of Big Bear’s Wife organizes #HalloweenTreatsWeek every year and I am so excited to be participating. There are 40+ bloggers sharing delicious and fun Halloween treats this week and I’ve got the full list of everyone’s first recipe down below.

My first post for the week is Candy Corn Fudge and I’ve been dying to share it for weeks now.

Y’all know I love all things sweet and salty so I mixed candy corn with salted peanuts and put in in a white chocolate fudge. I love everything about it. The saltiness of the peanuts keep it from being too rich and sweet and I just love when you slice into it and can see a full piece of candy corn. It’s just so pretty.

If you love candy corn but want something besides fudge, I have Caramel Corn Treats that are also a great sweet and salty treat.

And if you want more fudge recipes, try my Maple Bacon Fudge or Pumpkin Pie Fudge!

Mummy Oreo Truffles

Mummy Oreo Truffles – a spooky twist on the classic Oreo Truffles. Use Pumpkin Spice Oreos and white almond bark to create these little mummies! These are the cutest treats to bring to Halloween parties!

Heeeeey guys! Happy Wednesday!

Can you believe how close we are to Halloween? I haven’t even put out decorations.

Well.

I got them out. And put them all on a table in my living room. Weeks ago.

And they are still on that table.

I haven’t even switched my Pyrex wall to fall colors and you know that is the highlight of every season for me!

Life has just been so crazy lately! Maybe I’ll have sometime this weekend to get it sorted out. Or maybe I should just decorate for Christmas because who know when I’ll have time for that!

Jack-O-Lantern Layer Dip

Oct 23, 2014

Jack-O-Lantern Layer Dip – how cute for a Halloween party! Layers of refried beans, guacamole, salsa, cheese, and green onions topped with tortilla chips and olives to look like a scary pumpkin!

Okay guys, who’s been watching Once Upon a Time since the beginning?

I think I mentioned that I was obsessed with it and I watched all of season 1 within a day and a half or something ridiculous like that.

But now I’m stuck on season 2. Because Mulan’s there. And I had it in my brain that only classic fairy tale characters were allowed in Once Upon a Time and dangit, Mulan doesn’t belong there!

And Frankenstein. Frankenstein shouldn’t be there either!

What is happening.

Then I went to the IMDB page for the show, and I see what appears to be the Frozen girls? In really bad wigs? Stop, just stop.

Tell me, is it worth continuing? I’m just not into it like I was and it’s kind of depressing because I have the worst time finding new shows to watch.

Pumpkin Cheese Ball

Oct 23, 2013

Pumpkin Cheese Ball – savory cheese ball filled with salsa and cheddar cheese and covered in crushed Doritos to look like a pumpkin. How cute for Halloween!

I was sitting next to my husband on the couch while I was working on these photos yesterday and kept asking him “If I call this a pumpkin cheese ball, will they assume there’s pumpkin in it? That I rolled a ball of pumpkin in Doritos crumbs? WILL THEY CLICK THAT X UP THERE AS SOON AS THEY SEE THE TITLE?!”

He has assured me that you won’t think that. So here’s hoping he’s right.

It definitely doesn’t have any pumpkin in it but it is rolled in those Doritos crumbs I mentioned and then topped with a bell pepper stem so it looks like a pumpkin. It’s actually kind of taco-y.

My husband’s mom makes a taco salad dip that starts with a layer of cream cheese mixed with taco seasoning and this reminded me so much of that. If you’ve had that kind of dip, you will know what I’m talking about.

It was so delicious and addictive. I found myself making unnecessary trips to the kitchen just so I could grab another chip covered in cheesiness. My husband was on 24-hour staff duty the day I made it and I swear I got 6 texts during that time reminding me not to eat all of it.

And look how cute it is!
