I make dessert cheesecake cheeseballs all the time now, Every time I bring one they are always a hit. This is a rather simple one that is just chocolate. The cheeseball is super easy to make and would be something that would be fun for you to make with your kids.

I remember black and white cookies from my days of mixing up fancy lattes at the coffee shop. They were pretty tasty but they were just black and white. I liked them but I wasn’t in love with them.

Then I saw these Halloween Black and White Style Cookies that Jenni made and I found a whole new love of black and white cookies….or should I say orange and white cookies!

These fun Halloween Black and White Style Cookies have a secret ingredient to keep them fresh and tasty! – Angie, Southern Halloween Queen

Not only are these beautiful and perfect for Halloween but you’re also going to love that these black and white cookies actually stay fresh and tasty thanks to a secret ingredient! You’re going to need to hop on over to Jenni’s blog to grab this free recipe and find out exactly what that secret ingredient is!

Halloween Black and White Style Cookies

Jenni says,

Y’all, these black and white cookies for Halloween are really, really good. The tender, soft, slightly lemony cake and the shiny, lemony glaze are lovely together. And if you ever want to make traditional black and white cookies, instead of whisking orange food coloring into half of the glaze, just whisk in some dark cocoa powder and a tiny bit of extra water so the chocolate glaze has the same texture as the plain. And adding cocoa powder to a lemony glaze doesn’t taste weird. I promise.

If you’re having a Halloween party or even a Halloween themed dinner, you’re going to need something to drink. This Blood Red Punch is great, not only because it looks great for a Halloween party but it’s fantastic because it can be made kid-friendly or it can be turned into an adult cocktail!

I love the spider ice cubes with this Blood Red Punch! – Angie, Southern Halloween Queen

If you want the spider ice cubed, make sure that you plan a bit ahead of time so you have time to freeze some little plastic spiders into ice cubes!

Your guests are going to love them!

Blood Red Punch

Cathy says,

My kids love this punch anytime but love the ice cube spiders more.   I always make a couple trays of these cubes in October and pop them into whatever they are drinking.  They love it…and so do I.

This punch is kid-friendly (alcohol-free) but can be easily transformed into an adult beverage

Who wouldn’t want a slice of this Spooky Spider Web Cake!?!? I know I would!

Spooky Spider Web Cake

Miranda says,

With Halloween being around the corner, I’m ready to start throwing some creepy things at you like this spooky spiderweb cake. It’s a chocolate cake that I used black cocoa powder in, vanilla electric green icing in the center, and black chocolate frosting on the outside. The cake is incredibly moist and very addicting! The green web and runs on the outside of the cake are colored marshmallow fluff. Clever, huh?

Look at those little orange spiders and the chocolate spider web on top of this cake! Have you seen them before? Do they remind you of something? YES! They’re similar to the spiders and design on the Spider Chocolate Tart from Lindsay that I shared earlier!

Her cakes are perfect and her Halloween treats are amazingly fang-tastic!

Have you seen the cakes that Lindsay from Live Love and Sugar bakes up? I think they’ve always been some of my favorites in the blogging world. They’re always layered perfectly and the icing is always super smooth.

This Halloween version might be on of my favorites of all of her cakes. Mainly because it’s Halloween themed haha.

Spiderweb-topped Chocolate Cake with Vanilla Frosting needs to happen asap around here!

Lindsay says,

This particular tart was so fun to make and I kind of wanted to show the spiders to everyone. I mean really, how cute are they? I know Halloween is supposed to be scary and all, but why not make some cute spiders?

Chocolate tarts and orange spiders make for one boo-tiful Halloween dessert. I wouldn’t expect anything less from Lindsay from LiveLoveandSugar.com – she’s amazing and she creates some of the more beautiful desserts I’ve ever seen.

Her cakes are perfect and her Halloween treats are amazingly fang-tastic!

The great little orange spiders are easily made with orange melting candies and popped on top of a homemade chocolate tart that’s a no-bake treat!

An Oreo tart crust with the homemade filling that Lindsay made is going to be a new favorite of yours.

If you give this one a try let me know! I think that I’m adding this Spiderweb Chocolate Tart to my to make list asap!

These little Spiders on these Spider Cupcakes are way too cute to scare anyone! They’re also scary easy to make!

They use some of Thomas’ favorite candy, some icing and candy eyes! I’m also in love with chocolate cupcakes so that makes them extra awesome in my book!

These little Spiders on these Spider Cupcakes have little fangs and candy eyes haha. Normally I’m not a spider fan but a spider made of candy and icing can’t be bad, right?

That’s what I’m thinking!

I love these candy spiders on top of the chocolate cupcakes that Holly made but I think they would also look great on top of orange cupcakes or purple ones for Halloween!

Oh maybe even a black cupcake! Now a black cupcake with chocolate frosting or black frosting would be awesome for the Spider Cupcakes!

I love that idea! I may have to make a few of those!

Spider Cupcakes

Holly says,

These adorable spider cupcakes are so easy to make!  You can use any cupcakes for these little guys including your favorite homemade recipe or a boxed mix!  I like to use chocolate because I like the dark colors but they’d be adorable on red velvet too!

Spiders are pretty spooky to me even if it’s not Halloween! So these Spider Nest Lanterns would be extra creepy for me to have at a Halloween party!

However, I think they’d make the perfect decorations!

Not only are these Spider Nest Lanterns pretty easy to make but they actually light up too! You could display them around the house, line the steps with them or put them outside on the porch at night!

These Spider Nest Lanterns outside with a few pumpkins and carved Jack-O-Lanterns would make for one spooky looking doorway to the house for Halloween.

I might have to make a few of these for the back porch this year and toss a few extra plastic spiders on there for good measure! I’m pretty sure that you can get a huge bag of plastic spiders at the dollar store around Halloween!

Spider Nest Lanterns

Amanda says,

These spider nest lanterns are super cute and a fun Halloween craft for kids. Display them at your Halloween party, they will be a big hit!

Amanda has the directions and printable supplies list on her blog!

I’m crazy about chocolate chip cookies, y’all!

Not only am I crazy about chocolate chip cookies but I love Halloween, so these cookies are just perfect for me.

I may not be crazy about spiders in real life but I can totally deal with them when they’re made of chocolate and ready to celebrate All Hallows Eve! I mean look at how perfect those cookies look.

Halloween Spider Chocolate Chip Cookies

These fun spider cookies come from my friend Liz, over at ThatSkinnyChickCanBake.com.

Liz says,

“Seeing a creepy spider on your chocolate chip cookie is definitely spooky unless it’s a chocolate spider! Take your favorite chocolate chip cookie recipe, add a chocolate wafer and eight arachnid legs and, voila, Halloween spider cookies.”

But don’t worry! Liz had a chocolate chip cookie recipe included with her directions on how to make these fun little Halloween spiders for cookies.
