Halloween Mini Pizzas everyone is sure to love

These Halloween Mini Pizzas are actually a recipe that has been around here for years, as part of my epic Halloween food ideas platter.

But I thought it was time they got they got special treatment, where I can visually show you, step-by-step, how to cut the olives to make the spiders.

This recipe is incredibly beginner-friendly. Even if you’re a little unsure of your knife skills, as long as you have a sharp knife, you can whip up these spider pizzas without any hassle.

Why you will love this Halloween Pizza Recipe

  • Perfect for Parties. Whether you’re hosting a Halloween gathering or attending one, these make for a memorable and photo-worth snack.
  • Kid-Friendly. I’ve discovered unexpectedly that a lot of kids actually love olives! But even if they don’t, they can have fun in the kitchen assembling the spider toppings for the adult pizzas, while enjoying some plain pizzas themselves.
  • Quick and Convenient. We’re using a grocery store shortcut by starting with frozen mini pizza bagels, so these are a fantastic last-minute option for busy Halloween evenings.

This Halloween Brownies Recipe is scary good!

There’s lots of recipes for Halloween Brownies that look like mummies out there, but most of them use vanilla frosting or melted white chocolate for the “bandages.”

This mummy brownies recipe is for true chocolate lovers. These are rich, fudgy dark chocolate brownies topped with the easiest two-ingredient homemade chocolate ganache.

Perhaps you’ll love these brownies . . . to death?

Why you will love Mummy Brownies

  • Just as delicious as they are adorable. Definitely NOT one of those recipes that looks good but doesn’t taste so good.
  • No special equipment needed. If you don’t have a pastry bag, don’t worry about it – just use a Ziploc bag.
  • Fun to make with kids or kids at heart. Piping the chocolate over the brownies and putting on the candy eyeballs will get everybody into the spooky spirit of the season.

If you’re looking for a Halloween deviled eggs recipe to serve at a party or just round out your family’s dinner before trick-or-treating, you’ve come to the right place!

Why you will love this Halloween Deviled Eggs recipe

  • Only a few ingredients. Just add three pantry items to the egg yolks to make the filling, and then buy a few simple things for decorating.
  • Spooky deviled eggs that actually TASTE GOOD. Nothing fancy, but just a great creamy deviled egg filling with a little kick of Dijon in it.
  • They come together really fast. The spiders involve some knifework, but the other varieties require little to no effort to achieve a creepy and cute look that everybody will want to snap a photo of.

Zombie Halloween Cupcakes are perfect for spooky season!

When I was pregnant, my daughter’s due date was early November. My husband and I hoped for a Halloween baby!

We dreamed of a homemade haunted house birthday party with my Halloween deviled eggs recipe and other Halloween food, and spooky cupcakes to take to school.

Well, she arrived only a few days early, a week after Halloween, and of course the only important thing was that she was happy and healthy.

So maybe these Halloween cupcakes won’t be for any of her birthday parties (maybe Black Forest cupcakes instead?), but we can always have a Halloween party as well!

Save the candy corn shots and Halloween charcuterie board for the adults, but these zombie brain cupcakes can be enjoyed by all ages!

This Spooky Pasta Salad makes a great Halloween Side Dish!

As you know, I am having the MOST fun with Halloween food this spooky season. Sure, Halloween dirt cups and Halloween cake pops are certainly not what I went to culinary school for, but who cares?

My husband and I have always loved Halloween, but having a little kid running around has made it even more fun. Truly, seeing Halloween joy through her eyes is even more magical than Christmas for us!

One thing I don’t see much of on the internet is Halloween side dishes! But everybody needs to eat dinner on Halloween to get their energy up for trick-or-treating.

Usually, I will serve something easy like crock pot beef stroganoff or a slow cooker soup for an early supper right before trick-or-treating. But I never knew what to do about a side dish until this year.

Enter this fun and colorful Halloween salad recipe. With pepperoni bats, spooky tortellini and mozzarella cheese skulls, it’s just as delicious as it is perfect for All Hallows Eve.

With layers that look just like candy corn, these Halloween Jello Shots are sure to be a hit with all of the ADULT trick-or-treaters this year!

Halloween Jello shots made with layers of yellow and orange Jello and whipped cream, topped with sprinkles.

Candy Corn Shots: A fun addition to your Halloween!

Don’t say I didn’t warn you: the Halloween food ideas continue this week! So far I’ve done savory things like a Halloween charcuterie board and Halloween salad and sweet things like Halloween dirt cups but I haven’t done any adult drink with alcohol in it yet!

Sure, they’re not as ksophicated as say, a cranberry rosemary cocktail, and Jello shots might make you flashback to college, but even when you’re well past that age, they can still be fun once in awhile!

Plus, my neighborhood has a tradition of giving out candy to the trick-or-treating kids but also adult drinks to the parents accompanying them. I’m willing to bet many other neighborhoods do this, too.

These Halloween Jello shots are perfect to hand out to ADULT trick-or-treaters or to serve at your next adults-only Halloween party. Have the kiddos stick to Halloween cake pops or Halloween cupcakes!

Halloween dirt cups made with layers of chocolate and orange colored pudding, crushed cookies and gummy worms. Three cups are arranged on a wooden cutting board and topped with candy pumpkins.

Give ’em pumpkin to talk about with these Halloween Pudding Cups!

If I’ve learned one thing over the past few years, it’s that Halloween food ideas are basically endless! If you can think of a dish or type of food, you can Halloween-ize it.

My Halloween charcuterie board and Halloween deviled eggs recipe are good examples. And today, I’m back with a treat that kids and kids at heart will love.

For many of us, dirt pudding brings on the childhood nostalgia. I didn’t have it at home, but I do remember it being offered as a birthday treat at school and parties.

If you’ve never had it, it’s layers of pudding (usually chocolate) and crushed up Oreo cookies. These ingredients provide the “dirt,” and then you can’t forget the gummy worms crawling out of the dirt!

I’ve spook-ified this classic dessert even more for these Halloween dirt cups.
