Top 10 Kid-Approved Halloween Treats

Do your kids love eating fun and festive Halloween treats? My son always comes home from school hangry. The moment that I get him from the school pick-up line, he is already asking for dinner even though dinner is several hours away.

I have been planning to make him some fun Halloween treats but I can’t decide which ones to make. There are just so many cute Halloween treats on Pinterest and we would love to have you vote which one you like the best.

Mini Frankenstein Cheesecakes

Mini Frankenstein Cheesecakes

Our family loves eating cheesecake for dessert and it is a treat that even my 7-year-old will devour without a second thought. So these mini Frankenstein cheesecakes are one of my favorites. However, finding a mini cheesecake pan might prove to be difficult on short notice. I don’t think a muffin tin would work very well in this instance. Bummer! If you have a mini cheesecake pan, you can find the recipe and tutorial here.

Twinkies were one of my favorite desserts when I was growing up and my mom was never creative enough to dip them in chocolate either.

I can hear my son’s reaction now, he would think these twinkie bats are the coolest thing ever. You can find out how to make them here.  

Pumpkin Oreos

Oreos are another family favorite and my son would love these cute pumpkin oreo cookies. The great thing about these cookies, you can use flavored Oreos like Pumpkin Spice, Traditional Oreos, Double Stuffed, or even Oreos with orange icing for Halloween. While these seem like a ton of work, I am sure there are tricks to make dunking them in chocolate easier. You can even get the kids to help you make these treats too. Find the tutorial here.

  3. I love all of the adorable treats this time of year! Just this afternoon I was sampling my way through some at our corner grocery. My favorite was hot dogs wrapped in crescents with eyes to they looked like mummies. Although, they’d rival your mini monster cheesecakes. xx
