Orange Monster Cake
Recipe from Makoodle
This creative orange monster cake is just the ticket for getting into the Halloween spirit.  There is no need for any special decorating skills, all you need are some tubes of icing or a piping bag fitted with a small tip.  The cake pop eyes balls are made from dipping them into orange and white candy melts with a chocolate chip for the pupil.

Pumpkin Snickerdoodle Truffles
Recipe from Sarah's Bake Studio
Halloween is all about the candy and nothing beats homemade pumpkin snikerdoodle truffles.  They are smooth, sweet, and spicy with a distinct pumpkin flavor.  These velvety treats can be stored up to 4 days in an airtight container but I doubt they will last that long.
 
Jack O'Lantern Treats
Recipe from Food, Family and Finds
	These adorable Jack O'lantern rice krispie treats are a no bake sweet that can be made in a flash.  Rice cereal is combined with butter, melted marshmallows and food coloring to form the base of the pumpkins.  They are shaped using a mini bundt cake pan which gives them curves similar to those seen on a real pumpkin.  A tootsie roll stem and green icing leaves decorate the top while black icing is used to draw on the face.
