Halloween Treats

The kids all volunteered to take treats for school today for all of their Halloween parties. Chase took 25 of these cute chocolate covered pretzel Mummies to his class, they were'nt having a party so we thought we would bring a holiday treat to share. Super Spooky!

Ayden took these white chocolate ghosts to for his Halloween party.

Brielle took 39 Goblins for her party. I turned this yummy frosted pumpkin recipe in to a goblin with eyes and a mouth. I should have taken a picture of them but I didn't sorry, she left way to early with them. Here is a picture of them without the eyes and the mouth.

Those pretzels are really cute, what is wrapped around them?

I've seen those mummy pretzels, but I think it looks SO HARD! Did yours really look that perfect? Wow!!

Great minds think alike! We've made those glazed pumpkin cookies twice this week. (my recipe is slightly different- I use butter, not shortening). They are so tasty! Luckily, one whole batch we gave away, but YUM! The frosting adds so much!

No Halloween parties at school? Bizarre!
