It is hands down my favorite Holiday.
And today is Friday the 13th, no less!!!
SPOOOKY!!
Anyways, I make a point to try an incorporate as much Halloween-goodness into the month as possible, without making myself crazy.
I have already been busy decorating a few areas of our home.
I love coming up with new ways to re-use all the decor I have collected over the years!
I also plan to make some treats for my office.
I found a couple quick recipes that you should totally try out.
They don't require ANY baking!
The first are these Mummy Pretzels.
Super simple to make.
Just break off some chunks of almond bark and microwave for 30 seconds at a time (stirring in between each round) until completely melted.
Dunk each mini-pretzel into the bark and lay on parchment paper to cool.
I melt more almond bark and pour into a ziploc baggy, snip a small corner of the bottom of the bag, and drizzle more almond bark over the cooled pretzels to give it the mummy look.
Before the bark is completely set, I place two edible googly eyes on the top "holes" of the pretzels.
Easy peasy!
Then I making these adorably spooky Bat Bites.
How to assemble:
The base is a mini Reese's peanut butter cup.
The wings are an Oreo Thin, cut in half. (I used a sharper knife to keep the edges crisp)
I affixed the wings and edible googly eyes onto the peanut butter cup using black piping gel.
Leave out to dry and you're all set!!
While I'm making these goodies, I like to have a Halloween-themed movie going in the background.
My go-to faves are Hocus Pocus, Beetlejuice, and The Nightmare Before Christmas.
What are your favorite activities during this ghoulish season?
Thanks for reading!! XO
