Posted on October 20, 2022

As Halloween approaches, it’s time to start looking for tasty treats to satisfy our sweet tooth. Although candy is the focus of Halloween, there are plenty of other sweet treats to enjoy on Halloween. Here are four tasty treats to enjoy with your friends on Halloween.

 

No Bake Pumpkin Cheesecake

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

If you’re looking for a delicious cheesecake that doesn’t require hours of baking, this no-baked pumpkin cheesecake is the dessert for you! You’ll only need eight easily accessible ingredients for this recipe: graham crackers, melted butter, cream cheese, heavy whipping cream, powdered sugar, pumpkin, cinnamon, and vanilla. You’re ready to make the best pumpkin cheesecake when you have all these ingredients! For mixing instructions, click here.

 

 

Tombstone “Box” Brownie Bites 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

This simple brownie recipe with only four main ingredients produces more than 40 brownies for you and your friends. These fun tombstone brownie bites require only two boxes of brownie mix, graham crackers, chocolate sprinkles, and milk chocolate chips to make, and are delicious to eat. Baking and mixing instructions can be found here!

 

 

Vampire Donuts 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

This delicious dessert is simple to create and doesn’t even require baking! You only need store-bought donuts of your choice, plastic vampire teeth, and candy eyes. This dessert’s preparation takes mere minutes. You just need to make the vampire fang hinges fit the donut holes and pinch them. To fasten them, carefully open the teeth and press the outer edges into the opening. Add each doughnut with 2 candy eyeballs. Lastly, if desired, paint a line or two of “blood” with a toothpick around the lips of each donut before serving. For more suggestions on vampire donuts, click here.

 

 

Skull Candy Apples 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

These three simple additions will elevate candy apples to a new level! You only need apples, white chocolate, and melted gel icing to make this delightful snack. It only requires that you place a cake pop stick through the top of an apple and make a melting face out of white chocolate. Draw three circles on the apple’s side to make the eyes and mouth of the “skull”. Apply melted white chocolate to the apple and shape it into a drip pattern. Lastly, to decorate your apple and make a dripping blood design, use crimson gel icing. Then you’ll be prepared to serve the apple skulls! To watch the instructional video, click here.

 

These are four fun and easy Halloween desserts to make; head to your local grocery store to get the ingredients and baking!
