Halloween Treats

 Needing a good treat for your weekend festivities?

I have the 2 recipes that are the perfect solution to your problem.

The pumpkin whoopie pies have been my go to recipe for halloween time for years.

I have received countless emails through the years after people have tried these at a party 

asking for me to send this recipe over.

It is tried and tested and basically the perfect treat that is not too sweet and not hard to make.

** Read through the entire directions before making as some of the ingredient measurements are split between the pie and the frosting.

***My only recommendation is to not grease your pan preferably use a sil pat or wax paper if you don't have one. Grease will flatten out your pies while cooking. 

The second recipe was a treasure I found this year. 

I have already made it twice and it is honestly amazing.

Note* I have never liked apple pie, 

I like the idea of apple pie but once I take a bite of all 

those mushy warm apples I am no longer interested. 

These apple pie bites have turned me into an apple pie lover.

They have a higher crust ratio than apple pie so if you are the person always picking at the crust 

while eating pie this is your recipe, I promise.

You can find the recipe here, they only things I learned after making this the first time was:

1: Dry the apples off between a paper towel before dipping in sugar mixture. 

(allows for less moisture leakage)

2. Add a teaspoon of cornstarch (to help thicken) to sugar mixture 

& I used some apple pie spice in mine, yum!

3. I did not use water on the base of the pie crust as it did not need it or the extra liquid.

4. Second time I used a quality frozen pie crust to save on time, both worked great. 

You will die after taking a bite of these, I promise.
