These spooky Halloween appetizers are fun, festive, and easy to make, perfect for impressing guests at your Halloween party.

Ingredients

  • Flour tortillas
  • Cheddar cheese
  • Cream cheese
  • Olives
  • Hot dogs
  • Puff pastry
  • Spinach tortillas
  • Mini bell peppers
  • Food coloring
  • Ketchup
  • Guacamole
  • Avocados
  • Lime juice
  • Salt
  • Garlic powder
  • Sea salt
  • Marinara sauce
  • Egg wash
  • Mustard

Instructions

  1. Preheat your oven to 375°F (190°C). Use bat-shaped cookie cutters to cut tortillas into spooky shapes. Lightly brush with olive oil and sprinkle with sea salt. Bake for 8-10 minutes until crisp.
  2. Preheat your oven to 350°F (175°C). Slice a mozzarella ball into thick rounds. Place a slice of olive in the center of each round and drizzle with marinara sauce for a ‘bloody eyeball’ look. Bake for 10 minutes, until cheese begins to melt.
  3. Preheat your oven to 375°F (190°C). Wrap strips of puff pastry or crescent roll dough around hot dogs, leaving space for ‘eyes.’ Brush with egg wash and bake for 12-15 minutes until golden brown. Add mustard or ketchup dots for eyes.
  4. Cut mini bell peppers in half and scoop out seeds. Fill with cream cheese, then decorate with olive slices to resemble creepy faces. Serve chilled.
  5. Mash avocados and mix in lime juice, salt, garlic powder, and a drop of green food coloring for extra spookiness. Serve with bat tortilla chips.

Notes

Prep ingredients like cutting veggies and shaping pastries a day in advance to save time. Watch bake times closely to avoid burning.
