Halloween Spiders

I also found these in Pinterest as a base idea but recreated them how I thought they would look best. They taste delicious and even more, are SO cute!

To make the cookies:

1 box Devils Food cake mix

2 eggs

1/2 c canola oil

- mix together and roll into small balls and put on cookie sheet

- cook at 350 degrees for 8 minutes

1 can whipped cream cheese frosting

- after the cookies cool, put the cream cheese frosting in between 2 cookies.

We used cinnamon twizzlers pull n peel as the legs. You can use black licorice or red as well. We used lemon heads as the eyes.

Add peanut butter and vanilla to mixture and stir until smooth

Add cheerios and mix until all coated

Drop mixture by spoonful onto waxed paper and allow to cool.

Breakfast Casserole

Our family has this breakfast casserole for all occasions. Throw anything in you would like for meat, bacon, sausage, ham. We also love to add mushrooms, green peppers and onion

Recipe:

Spray 9x13 pan. I like to use about 3/4 bag of hash browns. I also use cubed hash browns, not the shredded. Put into pan, melt 1/2 cube butter or margarine and pour over hash browns. Bake at 375 for 20 minutes.

While that is baking, combine the following:

2 c. shredded cheddar cheese

4 lightly beaten eggs

1 c. whipping cream

Cooked meat ham, sausage or bacon (I put quite a bit of meat in, about 8 slices ham cubed)

Mushrooms, green peppers, onions

Pour over hash browns, season with salt and pepper and bake another 32-35 min. minutes at 350 degrees. Let sit about 15 minutes before serving.
