11 Halloween Snacks:
Fall is here and with that comes Halloween time! Having special Halloween themed snacks will definitely make the season feel brighter. Making fun traditions for your family can be so fun. Snacks and treats can be a wonderful way to create fun memories with your sweet little ones.
1: PB&J Spider Sandwiches:
This is such a fun one and fairly simple. You need to be able to cut a sandwich into a circle for the body of the spider. Pretzels and chocolate chips and you will have all the ingredients that make the sandwich a spider. You can really make any kind of sandwich you want. My oldest prefers peanut butter and honey while my middle daughter prefers a PB&J. Cut the sandwich into a circle, add the pretzels, and chocolate chip eyes and serve!!
2: Witches Broom:
You will only need 2 ingredients for this snack. Cheese and pretzels, pretty simple. You will need to cut the string cheese in half, and and cut some little snippets into the end of one side of the cheese. Then add the pretzel to end you did not cut to make the broom.
3: Monster Munch:
Puppy chow is something that I make on a normal basis, adding a exciting twist to the season. It is such a simple thing to mix up and add a seasonal flare for your home. Your kiddos will love monster mash!
4: Cutie Pumpkins:
This is a healthy, and entertaining fall snack. Another fall treat that only requires 2 ingredients. For the stems on the cuties, you can use pretzels or some cut up celery, it depends on what you prefer. You will need to peel the cuties before adding the pretzel stem/ celery stem.
5: Pretzel Eyeballs:
These are not super complicated but they do require a couple steps. You will need square pretzels, hugs (a kind of Hershey kiss), M&Ms, and black decorating gel. Lay the pretzels on a baking sheet, add the hugs onto the pretzels. Set your oven to broil, put the pretzel and hugs into the oven for about a minute or two. Once the hugs are a tad melty, you take them out and add an M&M to the middle of each hug. I would let them cool for a moment and then add a tiny bit of black gel. Not too much or it will take a long time to dry. Now enjoy!!!!
6: Ghost Bananas:
Another super simple snack idea and only needs a couple ingredients. You will need bananas, and some chocolate chips and that is it! You melt the chocolate chips take a toothpick or something similar and dab on the two eyes and mouth. Let the chocolate dry and voila ghost bananas!
7: Pumpkin Pretzels:
These snacks are easy, you will need orange candy coating, pretzels, and M&Ms. You will melt the candy coating, cover the pretzels with the coating, then add the green M&Ms to the notch of the pretzel and enjoy!!!! So yummy and cute.
8: Witch Finger:
Another very simple one. You just need red candy coating and bugels. Melt the coating and tip of the bugel into it. Let dry them BAM witch fingers. Theses are so fun and Halloweeny.
9: Mummy Pretzel:
You can use the regular pretzel shape, the pretzel rods or the square ones for this snack. You can melt down some white candy coating, or white almond bark. Once it is melted dip a spoon into it, drizzle in a zigzag over the pretzels, while the chocolate is still melty on the pretzel add some candy eyes. If you would like you can dip the whole pretzel in the candy coating before drizzling the white coating in a zigzag on the pretzel.
10: Halloween Chex Mix:
This may be the simplest ones. All you need is the ingredients and mix together. Then BAM you have Halloween Chex Mix. It is always a hit. You can pick the ingredients you can add, pretzels, candy corn, popcorn, M&Ms, caramel corn, cheerios etc.
11: Dirt Patch Cups:
This one is pretty popular year round. But you can definitely add a Halloween flare. You can add candy corn pumpkins on the top, gummy worms, and Oreo crumbs. These cups are just chocolate pudding and crushed Oreos alternating layers. It is a yummy snack!
