Nice job, Skinny Twinkie! Those treats look great. I am going to make some mummies for sure.
Thank you Torrey – I think the Mummies are my favorite too! :)
Way fun treat ideas! I like how they are healthy AND easy to make.
Another idea is to make an eyeball soup. Just use tomato soup and hard boiled eggs or pasta in the shape of eyes. Well, there are lots of options for the “eye” part. Maybe you can include it next year?
Fun!
Centipede and the Frankenstein bites look yummy. I mean, they all do…but anything with Almond Butter is going to taste yummy.
Yummy-ness
