Those Frankenstein heads were DELICIOUS (That sounds funny). But rice crispy treats covered with chocolate? Hellooooo? How could that be bad?
The cake also turned out to be a keeper recipe. I used my favorite cream cheese frosting recipe to ice it (doubled for that pumpkin-shaped cake): http://www.roanoke.com/food/recipes/details/?rid=1048&sorig=qs

Lindsay I made them with two young girls so the process was fun and for me that’s what this kind of stuff is about. We had a good time and they tasted good!

Yeah, those seemed to be the two most popular recipes of the ones we tested. Did you have good luck with the ghosts, Amy?

Had to giggle. I made the ghosts 15 or so years ago (except they were called Yummy Mummies I think) from an article in the Roanoke Times. I remember making the witches hats too!

Oh! good to know! I’m a HUGE pinterest fan/addict and was going to make the witches broomsticks. I hadn’t seen the witches hats. I might have to make some of those too…
