I have got some great Halloween Fun recipes to share. These have been past on to me from my mother in law who used them when my husband was a little tyke and we make them for our kids at Halloween. The first is a fabulous Halloween punch that is tasty and spooky. It looks like mud or swamp juice, my children prefer the swamp juice. We make this every Halloween and sometimes just for fun. So here is what you need.
Halloween Punch
Ingredients:
- one can of orange juice concentrate
- one can of pineapple juice
- one packet of grape kool aid
- one liter of 7-up
- dry ice
- a large bowl
- a two quart pitcher
- a ladle
- a wisk
Steps:
Mix the kool aid according to the directions on the packet. Do the same with the pineapple juice. Do not mix up the orange juice. Pour the two juices into a big bowl. Mix the orange juice concentrate and 7-up into the bowl as well. It will appear a sort of murky green black color. Then add the dry ice and enjoy.
For a tasty treat to go with your Halloween punch try a pumpkin roll for dessert. It is a swirl of deliciousness you that will love. So the make this you will need:
Pumpkin Roll
Ingredients:
- 3 eggs
- 1 c. sugar
- 2/3 c. pumpkin
- 1 Tbsp lemon juice
- ¾ c flour
- 1 tsp baking powder
- 2 tsp cinnamon
- ½ tsp ginger
- ½ tsp nutmeg
- shortening or cooking spray
- Pumpkin Roll Filling
- 2 8oz Cream Cheese
- ½ c butter softened
- 2 c powered sugar
- 1 tsp vanilla
Steps:
To make the pumpkin roll grease and flour a cookie sheet. Whip the eggs until they are thick and foamy about 5 min. Then slowly add sugar to the eggs. Next fold in the pumpkin and lemon juice gently. In a separate bowl sift together the dry ingredients.
Then fold the dry mixture into the egg and pumpkin mixture. Spread this on a cookie sheet all the way out to the corners. Bake at 375 degrees for 15 minutes. When the roll is done lift the edges with a damp towel. While the roll is still hot, sprinkle with powdered sugar. Now take a kitchen towel and slowly roll up the bread. Let it cool on a wire rack.
While the roll is cooling prepare the filling. Blend the cream cheese together. Now add the sugar and vanilla, blend well.
When the roll is cool, slowly and carefully unroll the pumpkin bread. Spread the cream cheese corner to corner then tightly, but carefully roll it up. Wrap the pumpkin roll in wax paper and cover in plastic and place in the refrigerator. When you are ready to serve slice the roll and sprinkle with powered sugar to dress it up. You can even make a stencil of a maple leaf or a pumpkin and sprinkle in the stencil to a design.
I hope these recipes will bring your family lots of Halloween fun.
