5 Easy Halloween Snacks For Kids

Directions

1. Cover the pizza dough with mozzarella slices and red sauce, then bake until fully cooked. After baking, drizzle extra pizza sauce on top.
2. Cut the mozzarella into ghost outlines and set them on the hot pizza right away, letting the residual heat soften them into ghost-like forms.
3. Press candy googly eyes onto the cheese ghosts.
4. Use a knife to carve pumpkin, ghost, or other spooky shapes from tortillas. Cut cheddar (or any preferred cheese) to match those shapes and tuck them inside the tortilla cutouts.
5. Arrange the tortilla-cheese shapes on a parchment-covered baking sheet and bake at 400°F for several minutes, just until the cheese melts.
6. Remove from the oven and let them sit for a few minutes to cool.
7. Slice store-bought crescent dough into thin strips.
8. Twist the dough strips around each hot dog, then bake at 375°F for 15–20 minutes, until the crescent dough turns golden brown on top.
9. Attach candy googly eyes to the hot dogs using small dabs of ketchup as glue.
10. Peel the mandarin oranges and place a small stick of sliced celery on top of each to resemble a stem.
11. Cut bananas lengthwise and dot the cut surface with mini chocolate chips.
12. For an open-mouthed ghost expression, gently warm a chocolate chip with a toothpick or rounded tool to soften it before placing it as the mouth.
13. Form teeth from green apple slices and mini marshmallows, adhering them with a touch of melted white chocolate.
14. For another set of teeth, spread peanut butter on red apple slices and use sunflower seeds or almond slices as crooked yellow teeth.
15. Place a sliced strawberry piece inside the mouth to serve as the tongue.
