Oreo® Devils
I made these little chocolate-covered Oreo® devils with my kids yesterday and they were a huge hit! I did the covering and they did the decorating. We also did a second batch as little monsters, where we just dunked the tops into red sprinkles and then glued either 1 big eye or lots of little eyes onto them. They were gone in no time at the kids' school Halloween party.
Garlic Shrimp in a Blanket
Chef John's shrimp in a blanket are an amazing twist on the party classic, and just about as easy to make. Shrimp marinates in a savory crushed garlic concoction, then gets wrapped in crescent roll dough and baked until deep golden brown. With big garlic flavor, these are fantastic on their own, and extremely delicious served with a quick mayo-mustard sauce.
