Punchbowl Hand

Fill a latex glove with water, juice or soda. Considered tie the end finished (a bit of string or a binder clip is good for this) and freeze. When freezing solid, remove the glove and float in your punch at the party.

Biscuit Spiders

Made up a batch of biscuits following your favorite method or using a mix. Shape spiders by creating a golf ball sized "body" and then roll out thin ropes of the dough to form the legs. Dispose on a baking sheet and lightly brush with milk or beaten egg. If you want, you can further decorate your spiders with raisins, poppy seeds, sesame seeds or chopped nuts. You can use aluminum foil rolls under the legs to hold them up while baking. Bake following you method or package directions watching to make sure that smaller items are not getting too brown.

Wild Worms and Eyes

This is naturally spaghetti and meatballs. Cook an unusual noodle that you do not commonly serve (maybe linguini or angle hair). When done toss in your favorite red pasta sauce and place on serving platter. Add warm meatballs and serve. You can make this spookier by tossing the noodles in a dark green pesto sauce or even in a creamy white Alfredo sauce.

Rice Cereal Creatures

Now I commonly shy away from doing "sweet" party food as there is so much candy colse to for Halloween, but if you want a fun way that kids can help with a party this is the best. Make a batch of rice cereal and marshmallow squares, only don't press them into a pan. Instead ask the kids to help you and generate goblins, trolls, snakes, whatever they want. Use small candies or frosting to add details such as red eyes or stripes. Place on foil lined baking sheet and refrigerate until firm. These make wonderful items for centerpieces on your buffet or Halloween table.

These quick ideas and Easy Halloween Recipes can add some extra fun to your Halloween party. They are easy to make and you will love that your kids can be complex and help you make cool Halloween party food. You could even use these recipes for party activities when your guests arrive.

Unique Halloween Party Food Ideas

Having a Halloween party is lots of fun, and that should comprise the food too. Instead of the usual, try some of these Halloween-themed foods to easily liven up the party. These ideas would also make a great edible gift to bring along if the hostess asks for your help with food for the party. If you are hosting a kid's party, you can involve your children in helping to make any of these treats.

- Scary Jell-O shapes. There are a lot of Jell-O molds you can buy that are excellent for Halloween. Two of the more coarse shapes are brains and hands. Use red gelatin (cherry or raspberry) to fill the mold, then "garnish" colse to the mold with a knife and fork so guests can enjoy a slice. If you easily want to make an impression, use a flesh colored flavor (like peach), and then use some red food coloring drops along the cracks of the gelatin. For an adult only Halloween party, you can make spiked Jell-O with vodka or other alcohol.

- Pumpkin or Apple cheese ball. These are fun cheese balls you can make that are shaped for the holiday season. To make a pumpkin cheese ball, you'll want to use cheddar cheese, with just adequate cream cheese to hold it together. Form the ball into a pumpkin shape, and use a dull knife blade to make the ribs on the pumpkin. Keep it wrapped in the refrigerator until it is time for the party. You can make a "stalk" for your pumpkin using an upside down piece of broccoli stalk. Put your pumpkin in the town of a lined basket, and surround it with glutton crackers. To make an apple-shaped cheese ball, you can use the same ingredients; only shape your composition to resemble an apple. Right before serving, roll the ball in paprika to give it a red coating, and use a cinnamon stick and bay leaf for the apple "stem."

- Halloween punch. To make a memorable party drink, make a light-colored punch, and then use Halloween-shaped Jell-O molds to make giant themed "ice cubes." For example, you could use a hand mold, fill it with red juice, and then freeze it. Just before the party starts, pop the icy juice out of the mold and put it in the punch bowl. Not only will it make an eerie floating hand in the bowl, but since it's icy it will help keep the punch cold.

- Spider web cupcakes - These cupcakes are sure to be a hit. First, make a batch of your beloved cupcakes; chocolate, apple spice and pumpkin are beloved options. Then top with a white or cream cheese frosting. Finally, using black food coloring, decorate the tops of each cupcake to look like a spider web. The easiest way to make the spider webs is to make 2 or 3 concentric circles with the black icing, then drag a toothpick straight through the icing outwards from the center. Repeat the toothpick dragging four or five times are the top and you'll have a realistic effect. You can also use Halloween themed paper cupcake liners.
