I’m always looking for creepy but easy Halloween desserts to make for my kids and their friends! We love Halloween in my house and that’s why I put together a list of 25 Halloween Treats to Make! My youngest is still leaning more on the cute then creepy side when it comes to Halloween. But my son is a little older and the creepier the better in his book! My son loves to make monster apple slices for a healthy dessert. I love to make a Halloween Candy Cookie Skillet a few days after Halloween to use up some of the leftover candy.
