Halloween recipe for MUMMIES (Hot Dogs)

1 can (11 oz) refrigerated breadstick dough (8 breadsticks)
1 package (16 oz) hot dogs
Mustard
Poppy Seeds

1. Preheat oven to 375F. Using 1 dough strip for each, wrap hot dogs to look
like mummies, leaving opening for eyes. (The dogs should have a small
portion exposed; it should look like a person in a mummy sleeping bag) Place on
ungreased baking sheet.

2. Bake 12-15 minutes or until light golden brown.

3. Place dots of mustard and poppy seeds for eyes. (Put a tiny dab of
mustard for each eye; place one poppy seed on each dab)

ORANGE JACK-O'-LANTERNS

Ingredients

6 oranges
1 package (5 oz) cook and serve chocolate pudding mix
2 1/4 cups milk
1 cup mini semisweet chocolate chips
4 oz cream cheese, softened and cut into 1/2" cubes
1/2 teaspoon orange extract
green-tinted canned frosting
green slivered almonds

Supplies

Pastry bag with leaf tip

1. Cut tops from oranges; discard. Scoop out fruit and membranes; reserve
for another use or discard. With sharp knife, cut out jack-o'-lantern faces in
sides of oranges.

2. Combine pudding mix and milk in medium saucepan. Cook over medium-high
heat, stirring constantly, until pudding comes to a boil. Remove saucepan from
heat. Add chocolate chips, cream cheese, and extract; stir until chips and
cream cheese are melted; cool.

3. Spoon pudding mixture into oranges. Cover tightly with plastic wrap;
refrigerate several hours or overnight.

4. When ready to serve, spoon green frosting into pastry bag fitted with
leaf tip; pipe onto pudding for pumpkin leaves. Add almonds for stems.

Green Slivered Almonds: Place 6 slivered almonds in small re-sealable plastic
food storage bag. Add 1/8 teaspoon green food coloring; seal bag. Shake bag
until almonds are evenly colored. Place almonds on plate lined with paper
towels; let dry.

Sex in a Pan (Is this a Halloween recipe?)

1 cup flour
3/4 cup sugar
2 tbsp cocoa
3 ts baking soda
1/4 ts salt
1/2 cup milk
2 tbsp vegetable oil
1 ts vanilla
1 cup chopped nuts (optional)
1 cup packed brown sugar
1/4 cup cocoa
1 3/4 heated tap water

Heat oven to 350 degrees. Mix flour, sugar, 2 tbsp cocoa, the baking powder
and salt in un greased square pan, 9x9x2 inches. Mix in milk, oil and
vanilla with fork until smooth. Stir in nuts. Spread in the pan. Sprinkle with
brown sugar and 1/4 cup cocoa. Pour hot water over batter.

Bake 40 minutes. Spoon into dessert dishes and top with whipped cream or
ice cream Spoon sauce from pan onto each serving.

Halloween party Recipe:

For something gooey and sweet for the party, I would melt semi-sweet
chocolate chips in microware (large bag), add can of peanuts and bag of
mini-marshmallows - drop by spoonful on waxed paper and put in refrigerator overnight.
You then have a wonderful, easy rocky road candy - yum yum. You can also do
this with regular chocolate chips, butterscotch chips or combination and use
just nuts or whatever sounds good to you. Not very healthy but sure does
taste good.

Cemetery dip

Artichoke or spinach dip in a rectangular pan.
Make toast points to resemble grave markers.
Place them appropriately in the cemetery.

Tasty hands

Using packaged pretzel dough, arrange it to look like fingers.
Soak almond halves in red food dye and place them on the ends of the fingers.
Cook according to instructions on the dough.
