It’s October 1st which literally blows my mind. I am not sure how we are here yet and I’m not quite sure why the temperatures are still in the 80’s.
We spent Saturday at the orchard, the weather was in the 50’s and it truly felt like Fall.
We’re back up into the 80’s this week but it didn’t stop us from decorating the house and digging into this Graveyard Brownies.
I am so THRILLED to be participating in #HalloweenTreatsWeek. Halloween is my son’s favorite holiday and I’ve got to admit it’s right up there with Christmas for me.
I’m not the type of person who likes creepy and scary things usually but something about all the pumpkins, the colors orange, purple and green and ghosts, zombies and spiders, {oh my!} have me eerily excited!
I was also super excited when I got these adorable Halloween swag gifts from Wilton and Treat Street.
With the skeleton molds and the zombie hands I knew I wanted to make something with the graveyard. We love a big ‘ol pan of brownies in this house and even better when they’re piping hot in a skillet.
The skeleton molds were SUPER easy to use. I filled them, popped them into the freezer and they came out like a dream. Aren’t they cute?!
Graveyard brownies are a decadent brownie, topped with crushed chocolate sandwich cookies and topped with candy skeletons and zombie gummy hands.
