Easy Halloween Treats and Snacks

These 20+ easy and delicious, sweet and savory Halloween treats are sure to impress your friends and family and keep them grabbing for more!

Well, it was bound to happen sooner or later.

It had to come to an end sometime.

Nothing lasts forever, you know.

Not even Halloween.

And this, friends, is our last Halloween post for this year.

I know, I know. Halloween is still more than a week away.

But you know how time flows in Blogland. While the kiddies are gearing up for an epic treat run, Handan and I will be crafting for Christmas!

I’ll let you in on a little secret.

Inside our house, the changeover has already begun. 

The bones have been boxed…

The spider has been stowed…

The little ghosts have gone…

And a Christmas vignette now sits where last week there were pumpkins. We can’t wait to share with our first post of the Christmas season with you!

Now don’t get the wrong idea. We haven’t gone all humbug on Halloween! All of our outdoor Halloween decor still stands!

Our hanging ghosts still sway in the autumn breeze.

Our witch legs still greet our visitors at the door.

And Skully & Ratface still crack jokes from their cages as they keep watch over the yard.

So with Halloween in our rearview mirror and Christmas coming just ’round the bend, we wanted to share one last post that will leave a really good taste in your mouth.

Leave the store-bought candy for the hordes on Halloween night—these treats are for you, your friends and family!

Ghost Meringues

I love these ghost meringues by Smart School House – they’re like miniature versions of the ones hanging in our front yard! And you know how Handan gets around ghosts—she throws here hands in the air and makes ghostly “WOOOOoooOOOoooOOO” noises – so she would love them, too!

You can find the recipe for these cute and yummy Ghost Meringues here.

Witch Finger Pretzels

Or as I like to call them, “Wife Fingers.” 😆

Oh crap, she heard me.

Yup, I’ll be making this for her so I can hear that laughter over and over! 🙂

Vampire Donuts

LOL, if the ogre eyes hot cocoa makes Handan giggle, these vampire donuts crack me up! It’s the eyes—they make me think of Cookie Monster!

Go ahead and look at the picture. I know in your mind you’re saying Om Nom Nom Nom!!

Harvest Hash Trail Mix

Everyone knows that salty and sweet is the best combination ever! Give your trail mix a little Halloween twist this year, but don’t give it out at the door, because you’ll want to gobble it all yourself!

Bloody Candy Apples

Not just candy apples—eye candy, too! They kinda look too good to eat!

Kinda.

Boo-nanas and Mandarin-O-Lanterns

Ha! The perfect way to get your kids to eat fruit! Just don’t give these out on Halloween night. You don’t want to be “that” house that gives healthy stuff instead of teeth-rotting candy! 😆

To make these Mandarin-O-Lanterns all you need is a sharpie… and of course some mandarins…or clementines…or oranges!

Or if you prefer Boo-nanas, then you’ll need some bananas.

Cheese Witch Brooms

Put a tray out at your next party, and watch them fly!

(Oh, c’mon, somebody had to say it!)

Spider Cheese Balls

Here’s another winner by Inspired by Charm. We can’t get enough of Michael’s party food recipes and his incredible photography!

Another one I’d love to make for Handan, but I fear she’d scream like a girl and throw it back at me! 😆

Witch Hat Cone Cakes

Fill some ice cream cones with cake batter, bake them and then spray ’em black with Color Mist food color spray. The rest is just icing and a cookie!

Sticky Spider Webs

And the award for simplest Halloween treat goes to…

Just add a plastic spider ring into a bag of cotton candy and you have yourself a Sticky Spider Web!

Spider Cupcakes

LOL, the spiders are looking up at you and saying “my cupcake!”

So what do you think? Which of these Halloween treats are your favorites?

For savory, it’s definitely the jalapeño mummies. Cheese, bacon, flaky crust and hot peppers? It’s heaven!

For sweet, my pick is the witch hat mint chocolate cupcakes. Frosting, people. It’s my kryptonite.

As always, if you try any of these recipes, let us know how it went and send us a picture.

I get lonely here around Halloween in the big empty house, so I need you guys to keep me company with comments and pictures!

Handan and I wish you all a spooky, tasty and safe Halloween!

We’ll see you on Thursday with an all-new post for the upcoming holiday season that we think you’re going to LOVE!

All our best,

Greg and Handan – Grand Wizard and Exalted Witch of The Navage Patch
