Every Halloween Party Must Have These Three Top Recipes

By: Colin Joss

Is your home crammed with guests for a party every Halloween? If that's the case, you probably serve the same receipes time and time again. Some of them are great traditions at Halloween parties, but it makes a change to find ways to make the same old recipes into a new spooky variation.

1. Eyeballs and Fingers. Having a bowl of peeled grapes as eyeballs and raw hotdogs as fingers is a staple addition to creep out your guests. However, how many people actually eat them? Probably not very many and you are left with inedible leftovers. Try coming up with new body-part snacks that are actually edible. Making any dish and calling it something eerily disgusting can have the same effect. Such as "intestine stew" with curly cue noodles in it or "brain mush dip" of guacamole or chip dip. It is easy to gross out your guests with really delicious food.

2. Dirt Dessert. Vanilla pudding, crushed Oreos, and gummy worms combined have definitely been the winning dessert of Halloween recipes. To remake such a yummy classic can be difficult, but also fun. Instead of making dirt pudding, try interpreting it into other forms. A dirt pie with an Oreo cookie crust and cheesecake filling or a dirt cake with vanilla batter and chocolate frosting are both big hits. Gummy worms can be added to any variation. Also, think about how you serve a dessert like dirt. Get little buckets for individual dishes or put a shovel in the bowl for serving.

3. Apples and Pumpkin. Basically making anything out of apples and pumpkins in late October is a treat of the autumn season. Spicing these fruit up to something spooky and smoking is not as hard as you think. Steer away from pies and explore some more rustic varieties. Bake apples whole for side dishes and toast pumpkin seeds for appetizers. Having rich fruit as a part of Halloween recipes can be filling and sweet. For children parties do not forget activities around food like bobbing for apples and pumpkin picking. Dipping apples in caramel may be typical, but why not try other dips and set up a buffet of candied apples. As for those who do not like the taste of pumpkin, hollow one out and use it as a serving bowl.

Good to eat, nice to look at and fun to make - these are the ingredients of a great Halloween recipe. Keep this in mind when working on your Halloween dishes. Or instead of making all the food yourself, hold a potluck with each guest bringing their own spooky dish. Keeping your Halloween food hip and updated will make your party the best in the neighborhood.
