Halloween Recipes

Here are a few more fun Halloween recipes I just found on a WW message board. Cute ideas! :)

Creepy-Creature Cake
Ingredients
• 1 box (18.25 ounces) devil's-food cake mix
• 1 can (16 ounces) chocolate frosting
• 2 cups chocolate cookie crumbs
• Red decorating icing
• Gummy worms, candy bugs, candy body parts, and mini marshmallows
Directions
1. Heat oven to 350°F. Grease and flour a 10-cup Bundt pan. Prepare cake according to package directions and bake. Cool 15 minutes and invert cake onto wire rack; let cool completely.
2. Frost cake and cover with cookie crumbs. Pipe red icing to look like dripping blood. Place worms and candy bugs and body parts around cake.
Make bloody hand: Fill a rubber glove with mini marshmallows, close the wrist with a rubber band, then use red markers for blood and black markers for fingernails. Place hand inside center of cake and cover wrist with crumbs .

Forked Eyeballs

These scary-good Halloween treats, prepared and eaten on the same fork, begin with a doughnut hole dunked in white chocolate.
RECIPE INGREDIENTS:

2 (11-ounce) bags white chocolate chips

12 doughnut holes

Semisweet chocolate chips

Tube of red decorator frosting
1. To coat a dozen doughnut holes, melt the white chocolate chips over low heat (and keep the chocolate warm while you work). With a fork, spear each doughnut hole and submerge it in the melted chocolate to coat it, then gently tap off any excess.

2. Stick a semisweet chocolate chip with its point cut off onto each doughnut hole, cut end first. Place the forks (handle side down) in a mug and allow the chocolate coating to harden.

3. Use a tube of red decorator frosting to add squiggly veins radiating out from the pupils.

Jack O'Lantern Stew

EasyServes:
6 to 8 servings. Ingredients
•1 (9 to 12-inch) pumpkin
•1 large onion, chopped
•1 green pepper, cored, seeded, and diced
•1 red pepper, cored, seeded, and diced
•4 carrots, thinly sliced into rounds
•3 celery sticks, thinly sliced
•2 cloves garlic, crushed
•1 pound lean ground beef
•1 pound ground chicken or turkey
•2 cups cooked rice (instant is okay)
•1 large can diced tomatoes
•1 large can tomato soup
Directions
Preheat the oven to 350 degrees F.


Cut the top off the pumpkin and scoop out the insides. Rinse well. Carve a spooky face onto the pumpkin, without going all the way through the flesh. Rinse well, oil outside of pumpkin. Bake the pumpkin shell for 30 minutes.

While shell is baking: saute the onion, green and red peppers, carrots, celery, and garlic until the vegetables begin to soften, about 8 minutes. Remove from pan and set aside. Brown ground beef and chicken. Add the veggies and cooked rice and cook over low heat, stirring often, for 10 to 15 minutes to let the flavors meld.

Remove pumpkin from oven and let stand 15 minutes. Stir the tomatoes and soup into the meat mixture. Place meat mixture into pumpkin. Put back in oven for 20 minutes. Serve on a platter with cheesy biscuits.
