Now onto some of these spooktacular recipes I have been promising you! Throwing together a Monster Mash Party doesn’t have to be scary, it can be easy and delicious!

These treats are soo easy to make, real crowd pleasers and double as decorations. When throwing a Halloween Party I like to have fun and not so scary decorations so everyone can enjoy themselves, who says Halloween has to be super scary? I love the bright combo of orange, green and purple for Halloween, sparkly pumpkins, friendly ghosts are all perfect for throwing the perfect slightly spooky party.

Now onto those easy party treats I have been promising you!

These Spooky Monster Eye Cookies are a cinch to make and soo yummy!  I start with NUTTER BUTTER Cookies (anything that starts with those is going to be delicious!!)

Then I coat them brightly colored chocolate and affix candy eyes to them.  How cute are they?! Easy, fast and will disappear off the party table!

Next for something a little savory I have my Black Widow Hummus made with black beans, adorned with a sour cream spider web and black olive spiders!

Hummus is the ultimate party food, it comes together in minutes and everyone loves it!  For this hummus I add a spooky touch by throwing in some black beans to give it it’s dark color.

Then I pipe on the sour cream spider web.

 

Ingredients
1 cup canned black beans, drained
1 cup canned garbanzo beans (chickpeas), drained
1 tablespoon olive oil
2 tablespoons fresh lemon juice
2 tablespoons plain nonfat yogurt
1 clove garlic, roughly chopped
salt and pepper to taste
Sour cream
Black olives

Instructions
Place all ingredients except sour cream and olives into the food processor and blend till well mixed.
Spread in a pie pan.
Place sour cream into a ziploc bag and cut off a small tip.
Pipe on your spider web.
Decorate with black olives to resemble spiders.
Serve with TRISCUIT Crackers and WHEAT THIN Snacks

I serve WHEAT THIN Snacks and TRISCUIT Crackers with this dip because they go perfectly with hummus and are my favorite!!

Now for some Swamp Slushies.  Again these are super simple!  I take lime sherbet and Pineapple Fanta, throw it in the blender until it forms a slushie.  Then I serve with some gummy worms or little gummy octopi that kind of look like spiders.  These are fun and refreshing!
