I will post later with all the recipes and reflections on this, but here are some images of all the baked stuff I made this weekend – my last big bake, I do believe. I set it all up in the office and feel very… free.
Getting the big Halloween bake all set up in the office
Very basic Halloween decorations
How will I organize this??
Ready for their close-up: Coconut cream bar cookies
Chocolate chip cashew cookies – same recipe as the white chocolate macadamia cookies, only throw in chocolate chips and cashews instead of white chocolate and macadamia nuts
Mini pecan pie recipe… also these got some rave reviews
M&M cookies… same recipe as the white chocolate macadamia cookies
Chocolate cookies with peanut butter chips – same recipe as the chocolate mint cookies but with peanut butter chips instead of mint
Table 1 of 2: Getting rid of ingredients cookies rather than the Halloween-themed goods
The Halloween-themed spread
Chocolate cupcakes (which happen to be vegan – not by design, just coincidence) with grey vanilla Swiss meringue buttercream
Witch finger shortbread cookie recipe… they freak everyone out
Same as chocolate cupcakes with a couple teaspoons of instant espresso added to the mix. And of course the tombstone cookies.
Chocolate truffles: Very easy to make
Welcome to the crime scene: Vanilla cupcakes with cherry “blood” filling and candy knives recipe
Coconut dark chocolate bites recipe: I toasted the coconut and blitzed it in a food processor, which is not indicated in the recipe. I think it works better this way
Close-up: Candy corn cupcakes

Happy Halloween 2017
