I’m not a very crafty person – arts and crafts and even baking really aren’t my thing. But I try to come up with ideas for my daughter. When she likes an idea I get the supplies and supervise but let her create it however she wants.
For a pre-Halloween treat we made cemetery brownies.
This was a pan of brownies decorated with frosting and candy. We made a fence out of candycorn, which I have to admit I can’t stand, gravestones from peppermint patties, and found marshmallow ghosts and pumpkins at the drugstore. I guess they are like the Halloween version of Peeps.
And here is what we came up with.
Now, I could say that it’s a little sloppy because an 8 year old decorated it but honestly, it wouldn’t look any better if I had done it. ;-) Oh and the red pieces are licorice which Alex said were bloody zombie arms. How sweet ;-)
We each had piece after dinner and it was super fun and yummy. We both got wound up from the sugar and then about 30 minutes later we were both really cranky. It was kind of funny in an annoying way.
Have you been doing any fun Halloween projects?
Great job mom and daughter :-)
Hi Manshu – Thanks. They were yummy but way too sweet for me.
I’m planning to make Halloween brownies myself this weekend, and hand them to kids when they trick or treat.
Hi Henway – Sounds like fun
Great Halloween is not for me this year as I have an upcoming exam…The cake looks extremely tasty, lol.
Hi Dawn – Well, good luck on your exam!
Thank you! Have a fun Halloween!
These are great! We make pumpkin cupcakes every year – never though about making brownies but I just might.
Hi Vered – Less work I think ;-) We made spider cupcakes a couple of weeks ago but I didn’t get any photos.
Those are so cute! Way to go, with your ‘un-crafty’ self! ;-)
Thanks – LOL :-)
awww, that looks cute Kim! Simply adorable. Well, have a Happy Halloween everyone!
Happy Halloween Pam!
I hate candy corn too! Something about the strange, un-food-like texture —
Hi Siel – It’s like eating sugar – way too sweet.
Wow, the cemetery looks too good. Awesome ..And ya Happy Holloween
Happy Halloween Alex
