The best part about Halloween is the food. It’s a holiday where you can let your imagination run wild with ideas for themed treats and dishes. And since there are so many different ways to celebrate this spooky night, we’ve put together a list of ten recipes to help you make all the food for your own ultimate Halloween shindig. We’ve covered everything if you’re looking for something sweet or savoury!
Baked brie with grape chutney.
If you’re looking for a crowd-pleasing appetizer that can be made in advance and served at room temperature, this baked brie with grape chutney is perfect. Brie is a soft cheese with a mild flavour that pairs nicely with the sweet and savoury grape chutney. It only takes a few minutes to throw together and will make your guests think you worked hours on it. You can also adjust the amounts of sugar or spice based on your tastes.
The best part? It’s great with crackers or baguette slices—and even better when served alongside different fruits!
Zombie cake pops.
Cake pops are a great Halloween treat. They’re easy to make, fun to eat, and great for using the leftover cake. You can make them in many shapes, decorate them with a wide range of toppings and even turn them into Zombie Cake Pops by adding some green food colouring!
You’ll need:
- Two packages of white chocolate candy melts (these are the same ones used for candy apples)
- various toppings like M&Ms, sprinkles or crushed Oreos (for eyes), toothpicks and lollipop sticks (for arms), green food colouring (optional)
In addition to the basic ingredients above, you’ll also need some sort of mould if you want uniform-shaped pops; these usually come with moulds that allow you to create pops in different sizes/shapes, including cupcakes & hearts!
Mummy deviled eggs.
Deviled eggs are the perfect food to make ahead of time, so they can be eaten at your Halloween party without being too cold. To make these mummy deviled eggs, you need:
- 12 hard-boiled eggs
- 1/4 cup mayonnaise
- 1 teaspoon mustard powder
- 1 teaspoon paprika powder
- Salt and pepper to taste
In addition to this basic recipe, you will also need:
Count Dracula’s bloody fangs.
Count Dracula’s bloody fangs recipe is simple:
- Simply place 2 cups (500 mL) of red wine in a medium-sized saucepan and bring to a boil over medium heat.
- Once the liquid is hot, add 2 tablespoons (30 mL) of powdered sugar and stir until dissolved.
- Remove from heat and cool slightly before serving as an appetizer or dessert. This recipe can also make bloodshot eyeballs by cooking it down until it becomes syrupy and drizzling the syrup over chocolate-covered raisins; simply garnish with fresh mint leaves for full effect!
Count Dracula’s bloody fangs are perfect for Halloween parties because they’re both simple and delicious—and they look quite sinister when served at dinner parties too! The only trick here is not spilling any on your clothes.
