1. Mummy Dogs
These cute mummy dogs are perfect for little hands, or as a finger food at a Halloween party. Making your own dough for the mummy wrap keeps the mummy dogs just a little bit healthier, and at least they offer a bit of protein as a part of a pre trick-or-treating meal. Serve with a little ketchup for dipping.
2. Eyeball Crackers
Just looking at these spooky eyeball crackers might make your guests think twice about putting one on their plate. But with green olives with pimentos supplying a very believable green spooky eye, and cream cheese filling in for the whites of the eyeball itself, they are quite fun to set in pairs upon your Halloween table. This is another item that is a simple finger food ideal for parties and get togethers.
