Friday the 13th is always a spooky day, so when it just so happens to fall in October, you're going to want to make the most of it!
Whether you're at home having fun with the kids or out partying it up, you might find yourself in need of some sweets.
These cute, tasty recipes are all pretty quick and easy to make, so you'll have extra time to put together your costume.
1. Frozen "Boo" Nana Pops
Everyone knows frozen bananas are THE BEST! They take on an ice cream-like texture, and the sweet crunch of the white chocolate shell is just heavenly. Add some fun little chocolate eyeballs and you're good to go!
2. Black Cat Cupcakes
I'm not superstitious, but I do know one thing: if one of these crosses your path, consider yourself lucky.
3. Mini donut spiders
Adorable, easy and fun to make! Does it get any better? Well it must, because these kid-friendly creepy crawlers are ridiculously tasty with the sweet-salty-tender-crunchy harmony that happens when you combine pretzels, mini donuts, M&M's, and a bit of frosting or chocolate.
4. Poison Toffee Apples
Black apples? Terrifying! These nostalgic kid favorites are perfect for your bank account, which won't see too much of a dip after you stock up on apples, sugar, corn syrup and black food coloring. In fact, there's a good chance you have most of these ingredients on hand anyway.
5. Bleeding Heart Cupcakes
White cupcakes with vanilla frosting, strawberry jam and a bit of food coloring are all it takes to concoct this unique masterpiece. And it doesn't taste half bad, either!
