I don’t know about you, but I am the kind of person that loves all of the creepy baking, DIY, and costuming fun of the Halloween season so much that I never want it to end and always spend a good part of November in a disappointed, uninspired funk. In fact, I couldn’t even get myself in the mood to bake or post any recipes for the entirety of November 2015. However, December is finally upon. Meaning it’s almost Christmas. Meaning it is once again seasonally appropriate to make The Nightmare Before Christmas-themed baked goods! These spooky little cake pops are filled with Christmas-y gingerbread cake festively spiked with spiced rum frosting and dressed up as Jack Skellington’s rendition of “Sandy Claus,” so if you too like a little Halloween in your Christmas, whip up a batch of these and get to “making Christmas” Halloween Town style★
Spooky Skull and Bewitching Black Candy Apples
Happy Halloween! Unfortunately, work kept me too busy to do nearly as much Halloween baking as I had wanted to this year, but I wanted to make at least one more quick treat to celebrate my favorite season, so I made and decorated some spooky candy apples. These pack quite a visual punch yet are so simple to make that even people who don’t like or aren’t good at baking could easily make them up before donning their costumes on All Hallow’s Eve, so if you’re looking for a last-minute Halloween treat to whip up that doesn’t even require an oven, give these a try★
