HALLOWEEN MADE EASY: Pumpkin Brownie Pops

May 2nd, 2015

pumpkinbrownies

If you love to craft, more than you love to bake, this little project is perfect for you!!  Everything always tastes better on a stick and that goes double during Halloween!! These ready-made brownies from Little Debbie’s look great, are delicious, and super easy to work with. Oh, and did I mention that you don’t have to do any baking… BONUS!

If you need to assemble something quick, or you just want to create an adorable dessert without having to bake anything, you will love how fast and easy these Halloween brownies can be skewered and arranged.

Supplies You Will Need:

  1. Halloween Colored Straws (I purchased mine at Party City)
  2. Orange napkins
  3. Pretty ribbon
  4. Little Debbie’s Halloween pumpkin brownies
  5. Skewers
  6. Pretty container
  7. Dry floral foam

All I did was purchase the brownies at my local supermarket.  This is a seasonal item from Little Debbie’s and you can purchase them during October.  First, I simply skewered the brownie.  Second, I tied a bow around the straw with the ribbon and slipped the straw over the skewer.  I did the same thing to the rest of the pumpkin brownies.

I placed dry floral foam inside my container and started sticking the finished brownie pops inside the foam.  Last but not least, I added the orange napkins to finish off the look.

It literally took me five minutes to make the above arrangement so this is a great last-minute project for a Halloween party or dessert buffet!

How Do I start off #31DaysOfHalloween?!  With these super easy Spider Egg Meatballs!  They are simple to make and wonderful for parties or even a quick snack!  This recipe was adapted from Pillsbury and I prefer using their rolls  because they are nice and fluffy.  Enjoy!!

Ingredients

1 can (10.2 oz) Pillsbury™ Grands!™ refrigerated buttermilk biscuits

1/3 cup shredded Monterey Jack or Cheddar cheese

10 refrigerated or frozen cooked beef meatballs, thawed

1/4 cup LAND O LAKES® Butter, melted

2/3 cup finely crushed seasoned croutons

1 1/2 cups of pasta sauce, heated

 

Preparation

Line cookie sheet with parchment paper, or spray with CRISCO® Original No-Stick Cooking Spray. Separate dough into 5 biscuits. Split each biscuit to make 10 rounds. Press out each biscuit half to form 3-inch round.
Sprinkle each biscuit round with cheese to within 1/2 inch of edge. Top each with meatball. Bring up sides of dough over meatball; pinch edges to seal. Brush rounded tops and sides of dough with butter; coat with croutons. Place, seam side down, on cookie sheet. Bake 10 to 15 minutes or until golden brown.

Place appetizer pick in each biscuit-wrapped meatball to form meatball pop. Serve with warm pasta sauce for dipping.
