What are your favorite Halloween recipes?
These look amazing. I can’t believe the trouble that people have gone to to create these.
Shame Halloween isn’t something we celebrate here in Australia, at least not amoungst people my age. I think it’s catching on with children now though.
I hope all of you Northern Hemisphere folk have a good time on the 31st.
maybe you can be the one to start the tradition in Australia!
I might leave that one for people who are more into partying. Also it seems like it’s one of those fun occasions where it’s better to do when it’s cold.
Since the temp here at the moment is pushing 100 degrees most days while we gear up for summer, I suppose we could have a “Welcome to the Gates of Hell” do though.
I wish you could have seen my face as I scrolled down this list, opening basically every recipe in a new tab so I can try to plan to create as much of this as possible before the 31st.
I also appreciate how they’re not all sweet. That pumpkin macaroni cheese is calling my name!
Thank you and you’re welcome! And yeah, that mac and cheese looks really tempting!
Mey, you’re amazing for putting this together.
I’m flying to San Francisco super early on the 1st, so I’m thinking of doing something super low key the day before. Spooky open house brunch? Spooky open house brunch.
Yum! Also: pumpkin bread pudding. Super easy and amazinggggg https://oishiifood.wordpress.com/2010/11/05/pumpkin-bread-pudding/
Mey, I am loving all your Halloween related posts.
I want to eat everything on this list.
thank you so much!
I am absolutely loving all the Halloween related articles on here and I am loving all these recipes.
My smile just kept getting bigger and bigger aaaah everything looks so fun and good. And those spiders! Look at those spiders with their little jointed pretzel legs! And the ouija boards! And that macaroni!
This is exactly what I need in my life. The question is, do I send this link to my friends so they can do some of the food-making or do I not dare do that b/c it is possible they will want me to make ALL the things.
I want to try all of these! Excellent list!
I am so happy. Thank you. Oh my god. I’m really, really happy about this.
Great list, so many cute things! I’ve been wanting to make some candy corn vodka but no one wants to try it with me but since you included it maybe it’s a sign I should just make it for myself!
I’m allergic to wheat but boy howdy am I stoked to adapt these recipes!
For vg/gf crusts (no bake): pecans OR walnuts OR almonds + dates OR prunes
Other substitutes that might help (all from either mynewroots/chocolatecoveredkatie or my own experiments)
Cheesecake blend: cashews, soaked overnight, coconut oil, honey, vanilla and throw em in a food processor! Very flexible recipe, can add pumpkin/spice to get the flavor/color you need
Whipped cream: chocolatecoveredkatie has a pretty good non-dairy recipe on her site using full fat coconut milk
And that’s all I got. That pumpkin swirl cake is basically all you need for date night apart from your lovely self, a fork, and Hocus Pocus. Thank so much for this list!
All of these look amazing, and most can be made kosher for a werewolf bar mitzvah!
These are all so cute and creative! I love the mushroom eyeballs – and they look pretty simple to make, too.
I have come to preach the good word of gel based dyes for your confectionery needs.

You want a orange that says ORANGE rather than politely suggests orange use a gel based dye. Many craft stores and party supply stores do sell individual half ounce jars if you do wish to invest in a full rainbow.
Black On Black is an excellent Heart song by the way and some of these recipes are just so cute. Imma melt.
