This year's Halloween party is going to be the best one ever! Choose a Halloween cookie cutter assortment and start planning
. It's easy to make your shindig stand out when you use Halloween cookie cutters to create a pile of ghastly good treats and crafts. Read below for some ideas and remember to get creative!
Cookies This is an obvious treat, but it doesn't have to be boring. Purchase store-made sugar cookie dough to save time, and then lay out a variety of toppings so that your guests can create their own ghoulish concoctions. Opt for a different twist on Halloween cookies by making a pan of marshmallow crispy treats and using the cutters to reveal low-fat shapes. Experiment with ice cream and create your own ice cream sandwiches. The sky is the limit!
Sandwiches Think orange cheese and white bread. Who would have thought that cheese sandwiches could be so festive? Select a cat cookie cutter and decorate the sandwich with raisins for eyes and thin slices of olive for whiskers or outline the rivets of a pumpkin using squirt cheese. Pique your child's excitement about the upcoming holiday by cutting his regular square peanut butter and jelly into a witch's hat.
Gelatin treats Whip up a recipe of jiggly gelatin treats in Halloween colors such as black and orange, and then use your cookie cutters to transform them into brightly colored confections.
Stencils Help your children make handmade cards this year to send to family members. Select some simple Halloween cookie cutters, place them on paper and trace. Be sure to provide plenty of decorations such as glitter and an assortment of markers, you'll definitely have plenty of homemade cards that will stay on the grandparents' fridges for months.
Decorations Once you've created your spread of Halloween goodies, line up the cookie cutter assortment on the table, or stand them up as centerpieces in the middle of spooky candle montages. Keep the Halloween cookie cutters out throughout the whole month of October; there is no need to hide them in your drawer.
