Who can tell me a fun way to make Halloween treats?
I know google and ask and foodnetwork already, so don't tell me those!
Who has a recipe that they can acually put on a notecard? Right now?
It would be a plus if you could shape them into cool hapes with cookie cutters! If you can shape them, where can you find them? How much money?

I just made this one the other day. It was cool. It requires whatever you need to make ordinary sugar cookies, plus green food coloring, red decorating gel, and sliced almonds.
Witch’s Fingers
Make sugar cookie dough, except add several drops of green food coloring to the mix and blend it until you’ve got a pleasant light green tint evenly distributed.
Divide the dough into approximate fourths or smaller batches. Grease a cookie sheet or put parchment paper on it. Take out of batch of cold dough and put the rest back in the refrigerator. Take one rounded teaspoon of dough and form a cylinder the size of a child’s finger. (Be quick or the dough gets hard to work with from the heat of your hands.) Set it on the cookie sheet and shape it into a finger, with two knuckles and a rounded tip. When you’ve filled the cookie sheet, use your scrupulously clean fingernails or a butter knife to add creases to the knuckles.
Bake, watching carefully for the bottoms not to brown, according to sugar cookie recipe directions. Let cool completely.
When cool, put a generous dot of red decorating gel at the rounded end of each finger and press an almond slice onto it firmly, allowing the red to ooze out slightly, for bloody fingernails. When all the cookies are done, if there’s gel left over, bloody the "stump" end.
3 boxes black raspberry jello
1 lb black grapes
Make jello as directed on box, when set up stir up and add grapes then return to frig for 20 minutes, my kids call this snot and eyeballs
Nuclear Waste Punch
2 cans pineapple juice
1 2liter mountain dew
1 quart lemon-lime sherbet
mix soda and juice, scoop sherbet into drink mix
here is what i’m doing for my halloween party hope this helps
For a festive treat, serve slices of Absolutely Almond Pound Cake™ on orange or black plates. Dollop with peach preserves, whipped cream and a sprinkle of cinnamon.
Create an apparition appetizer! Shape our Sun-Dried Tomato & Feta Cheese Ball into a ghost and add two sliced black olives for the eyes.
Mold cream cheese into the shape of a hand on a small plate; press in whole almonds at the tips for fingernails. Spoon Mild Red Pepper Dip over the back of the hand as a ghoulish garnish.
Top Pumpkin Patch™ cupcakes with cream cheese frosting. To accent each one with a sweet spider, roll out a black gumdrop and cut out eight strips for legs. Stick another gumdrop on top, and place in the center of the cupcake.
Hollow out small pumpkins and fill with any of our dips, such as prepared Go! Go! Asiago Dip or Spinach & Herb Dip. Serve with Blue Aztec Chips for a festive touch.
For a drop-dead centerpiece, top Truffle Fudge Brownies with chocolate frosting and stick tombstone-shaped cookies on top to resemble a graveyard.
