    I don't know about you but I LOVE Halloween. I'm a huge fan of any excuse to wear a costume and I appreciate the slightly macabre leanings of the holiday. Give me all the gory goodies and blood colored booze! However, if you're hosting a family-friendly party this year, kids might not be as inclined to eat hot dogs shaped like bloody fingers. These gluten-free Fruity Mummy or Spooky Ghost Cookies are the perfect spooky-cute, kid-friendly Halloween treat! Coconut flavored cookies are wrapped in fruit rolls or sprinkled with powdered sugar for a not-too scary dessert that your littles will love.

    Fruity Mummy or Spooky Ghost Cookies are also a great way to get the kids into the kitchen. Kids are all about helping to create holiday goodies, especially if they get to eat their creations! Ask your littlest ghouls to help sprinkle the cookies with powdered sugar, or to wrap the mummies in fruit rolls. Older kids will be able to help to add ingredients, mix the dough and roll out the cookies. Now...if someone could just figure out a way to get them excited about helping with the clean up. That's the dream.

    Looking for more boo-tiful treats? Try these Ghost Cupcakes, Gingerbread Skeletons, or Monster Brownies they're gluten free and vegan, so everyone can enjoy! Allergen free and easy? That's definitely a sweet trick (and a sweet treat).
