Fun Halloween Treats Everyone Will Love
By: Bob's Red Mill | September 8 2017Halloween is coming up fast, and with it, you may experience some mild anxiety over what kind of treats you can prepare for friends and family that are simple and fun to make, yet are still loaded with all those beloved fall flavors that bring back fond childhood memories and visions of colorful leaves falling.
It's also possible that baking is not your forte, and you would rather eat treats than make treats. No judgment here, but obviously the easier your Halloween treats are to make, the more likely you are to try to make them.
With that in mind, here are four delicious ideas to get you started that are not only good, but they will also be so easy and so much fun to make, you'll wonder why you didn't try making them before. If you can rope in a few small little helpers, making these treats will become even more enjoyable. You can have a baking party and let them taste test all the fruits of your labors. If they pass the kid test, you’ll know you’ve got some winners on your hands.
These Halloween ginger cookies are the perfect blend of sweet and spicy flavors, plus they are a blast to make. You get to roll out your creative side as you decorate them like little ghosts, goblins, and spider webs.
Or you could use cookie cutters to shape them and decorate them as pumpkins, gingerbread men, or grave markers. There’s no limit for the creative mind when you make a batch of these Halloween Ginger Cookies, especially if you utilize the imaginative gifts of your children and ask them to pitch in as you decorate them.
These delicious treats are made with Bob’s Red Mill Unbleached White All Purpose Flour and baking powder, with vanilla extract, sugar, and powdered sugar to sweeten them up. If you have gluten sensitivities, you could substitute the flour for Bob’s Red Mill Gluten-Free 1-to-1 Baking Flour instead.
