Witch Hats!
You'll need : Hershey kisses, Keebler fudge striped shortbread cookies, orange icing (in a squeezable tube). What to do: Turn the shortbread cookies over and line the hole of the cookie with orange icing, then place the Hershey kiss on top of the icing and hold it there for a minute so it stays put and the icing dries. Then line the Hershey kiss with the orange icing and if you want to be extra creative, make a little bow with the icing on the hat. Let the icing dry and, hocus pocus! You have ghoulish witch hats! Happy Halloween!

Stained Glass Spooks!
What you will need: Jolly Ranchers or any hard, colorful, clear candy like that, cookie cutters (ghosts, pumpkins. etc.), heavy duty foil, oil, and cookie sheet. INSTRUCTIONS: wrap the foil around or inside the cookie cutter of your choice. (You do this so the melted candy does not seep out.) Next, oil the cookie cutter and foil. Then, you unwrap the candies and place them in the cookie cutter. You put just enough to almost cover all the foil. You place in the oven for about 5 to 10 minutes or until it is completely melted. When it's completely melted, take the cookie sheet out, poke a hole at the top if you want to hang it and let it cool. You simply tap the melted creation out of the cutter and hang for a decoration or gobble them down!!

Skin Head Skull
Get a plastic skull, make sure it's clean and cover it with cream cheese. Then layer thinly sliced pieces of ham all over it until it's completely covered. Take 2 hard boiled eggs and cut in half. Using the rounded end instead of the pointed end, put a little cream cheese in each hollow end and place a green olive in it. (This makes the eyes for the skeleton head) Put the eggs into the eye holes in the skull. Place on a tray with plenty of rolls, cheese, mustard, Mayo and whatever else you like all around the base of the skull. Party guests can "dip" into the skull or make a sandwich. This was so realistic -looking at my party that nobody would eat it. But it looked GREAT!!
