So, you're throwing a murder mystery party.
You've picked out a theme (I love the classic Halloween Party Homicide game, linked here!) You've invited your guests. You've set everything up. But you still need to come up with some delicious treats that also look great. You've come to the right place for ideas... and they will all be a hit!
Peanut Butter Spider Cookies 🕷️
A peanut butter cookie is a classic, and what better way to make them spooky than by adding creepy crawly spiders on top? These cookies are perfect for anyone whose favorite candy is Reese's... I mean, who can resist the combo of peanut butter and chocolate?! Make a big batch, as your guests will surely come back for seconds!

Puff Pastry Hand Pies 🥧
Pies are a fall treat that come in many shapes and sizes, and these little hand pies are adorable and delicious! You can use a variety of fillings in these pies and really make them your own-- I love cherry and pumpkin!

Halloween Fruit Tray 🍎
If you want to stay healthy but still have a fun treat, try a fruit tray! Pick your favorite fruits and decorate them to fit the Halloween spirit. I love banana ghosts and strawberry vampires!

Presentation Ideas
Make a board! Whether you are hosting or coming as a guest, bringing a board filled with Halloween treats will be a total hit!! You can add fun dips, sweet snacks, and salty ones to really round out the flavors at the party. You can use a classic charcuterie board or put your treats into a baking tray with sides so nothing slides off. Be creative and have fun with it!
