If you’re planning a spooktacular party here are some great Halloween recipes for your guests.
The first is called Eerie Eyeballs and yields more than 100 of these bite size visions. What you’ll need is gelatin, and for dieters or diabetics sugar free is okay. You need miniature marshmallows, hot water, pineapple juice, cream cheese, and mayonnaise. You can use the low fat cream cheese and fat free mayo.
The first thing you do is dissolve the gelatin in the water over a double boiler. You then add the marshmallows and stir the mix until melted. Once it’s removed from the heat the cream cheese and pineapple juice are added. Then beat the mixture well until it is all blended. Now you have to cool this Halloween recipe slightly before folding in the mayonnaise.
To make this favorite of Halloween recipes the spookiest ever you’ll want a mold that is used for truffles or round-shaped ice cube trays. If you don’t have either you just pour this Halloween recipe mixture into a deep dish made of ceramic. You have to chill the eyeball concoction until it is thick and so firm that you can scoop it into those eerie eyeballs.
The best scoop for this and other Halloween recipes is a melon ball scoop. You’ll use it to scoop the eyeball mixture up and set each aside to be decorated. The decoration requires liquid food coloring and a small paintbrush. The pupils will require black coloring. The easiest and fastest way to create the irises is to dip them into food coloring and then later paint the pupils on.
Other fun and frightening Halloween recipes include witches’ fingers made of butter, almonds and baking powder, a brainy shrimp spread made of cream of mushroom soup, cream cheese, shrimp and a number of other ingredients that turn out the look of a decomposing brain.
These Halloween recipes will really get your guests in the spirit – if they survive long enough to eat the frightening feast.
