Edible Eyeballs

Ingredients:
  • 1 dozen hard boiled eggs
  • Mayonnaise
  • 1/8 tsp Onion Powder
  • 24 green olives with pimentos
  • 1/8 tsp Dry Yellow Mustard
  • 1/8 tsp Salt or to taste
  • Toothpicks
  • Red Food Coloring (paste is best)
Directions:

 1. Cut the eggs in half lengthwise. Scoop out the yolks into a bowl. Set whites aside for a moment.

2. Mash egg yolks with fork. Mix in some mayonnaise, onion powder, mustard and salt. Stir well. Place 1 teaspoon of mixture in each half of cooked egg whites.

3. Push a green olive into the center of the egg yolk mixture, making sure the red pimento is "looking" out.

4. Dip toothpick in red food coloring and make "red veins" in the yolk mixture.

Bloody Punch

Ingredients:
  • 1 Can frozen orange juice concentrate (with pulp)
  • 1 Can frozen cranberry juice
  • 1 Bottle Sprite or 7-up
  • Red food coloring (paste works best)
  • Plastic eyes, fingers, etc.
  • Frozen cranberry juice ice cubes

Directions:

 1. Mix the orange juice and cranberry concentrates together with 4 cups water.

2. Add about 1-teaspoon red food coloring paste (or 8 to 9 drops of red liquid food coloring). This will help make the punch look more "bloody". Pour in the pop just before serving.

3. When ready to serve, put the red ice cubes into bowl. (Hint: if you can find some ice cube trays shaped like body parts, this would make the punch even better!)

Graveyard Cake

Ingredients:
  • 1 Dark Chocolate Cake Mix
  • Cherry Pie Filling
  • White Icing Chocolate cookie wafers
  • Green Food Coloring (paste is best)
  • Small plastic ghosts, goblins, trees

Directions:

 1. Make a square or round chocolate cake according to package directions. Let cool.

2. While cake is cooling, make white icing. Tint with green food coloring.

3. Cut about ½ inch off across the bottom of the cake, straight across from side to side. Scoop out the center area of the cake to make a hole (but don't go straight through cake). Set cake crumbs aside.

4. Fill the well with Cherry Pie Filling. Replace the bottom of the cake that you sliced off earlier and set the cake down on a plate.

5. Frost the cake with the green icing. Place chocolate wafers along the top to look like tombstones. Add a few plastic ghosts and goblins. Put some of the reserved cake crumbs around the tombstones to look like freshly dug graves. (You could also get some small doll hands and place them sticking out of the graves).

6. When you cut the cake, the pie filling will ooze out and look like blood.

Bloody Nachos

Ingredients:
  • Blue Tortilla Chips
  • 1 cup shredded cheddar cheese
  • ¼ cup chopped mild green chilies
  • ¼ cup chopped green or black olives
  • 1/2 cup salsa
  • Sour cream
  • Red food coloring
  • Guacamole

Directions:

 1. Heat oven to 400 degrees F. Line a cookie sheet with aluminum foil.

2. Place tortilla chips on cookie sheet. Sprinkle with cheese, chilies and olives.

3. Bake for 4 to 5 minutes until cheese is melted. Remove from oven and top with salsa.

4. Add red food coloring to the sour cream and serve with the nachos, along with the guacamole.

Moldy Biscuits

Ingredients:
  • 1 cup shortening
  • 6 teaspoons baking powder
  • 4 cups flour
  • 2 teaspoons salt
  • 2 tablespoons sugar
  • 1 ½ cups milk
  • Green food coloring

Directions:

 1. Heat oven to 450 degrees F. Mix flour sugar, baking powder and salt in a bowl.

2. Cut shortening into flour mixture using a pastry blender or two knives, until the mixture looks like fine crumbs.

3. Add green food coloring to milk until it is a dark green. Make a well in the center of the flour mixture and pour in the milk.

4. Mix together until dough leaves the sides of the bowl (it should be soft and sticky).

5. Turn dough out on lightly floured surface. Knead lightly 10 times. Roll out so that dough is about ½ inch thick. Using a round cookie cutter cut biscuits from dough.

6. Place on an ungreased cookie sheet about 1 inch apart and bake for 10 to 12 minutes. Remove from cookie sheet immediately. (Yield: about 24 biscuits)

Frankenstein Monster Cake

Here is a great video on how to make an easy Frankentein monster head out of cupcakes!



Other Suggestions:

  • Ghoulish Potato Salad. Make potato salad and add green food coloring to the mayonnaise before mixing.

  • Freeze gummy worms and other wiggly creatures into ice cubes. Float them in your party drinks or make a big splash in a punch bowl.

  • Severed Finger Sandwiches. Cut off the crust of all bread. Make a variety of sandwiches as normal. Cut the sandwiches into 3 strips. Round the tip of each sandwich to make it look like a finger.
