Haunted Graham Cracker
House Courtesy of
Family Fun Magazine
1 can
chocolate frosting 1 empty cardboard cereal box or cracker
box 1 box chocolate graham crackers Candies such as
black shoestring and twisted black licorice, orange candy
corns 1 bag marshmallows Tacs, M&M’s and Necco

graham cracker scraps. Shingle the roof with candy corns. To
add a porch, glue with the frosting a graham cracker
horizontally to the side of the house and support it with
licorice or candy sticks.
For a
backyard graveyard, flatten the marshmallows, snip off the
side with scissors and use frosting to stand them up and
decorate with “R.I.P.”. Add a crooked walkway of Necco wafers
and a “Keep Out” sign with a wafer written in frosting.
Sprinkle crushed chocolate cookies to fill in the yard and
decorate house with candies.

Halloween Cutout Sugar Cookies
It’s easy to transform a basic sugar
cookie dough into delightful Halloween treats. Using cutters
shaped like ghosts and black cats, you can create spooky
sweets that will cast a magic spell over holiday
gatherings.
16
Tbs. (2 sticks) unsalted butter, at
room temperature 3/4 cup sugar 3 egg yolks 1
piece vanilla bean, about 2 inches long 2 1/2 cups
all-purpose flour 1 tsp. baking powder 1/2 tsp.
salt Colored sugars and decorating pens
Directions: In a bowl, using an
electric mixer, beat together the butter and sugar on medium
speed until light and fluffy, about 4 minutes. Beat in the egg
yolks one at a time, beating well after each addition. Cut the
vanilla bean in half lengthwise and, using a small, sharp
knife, scrape the seeds into the butter mixture. Mix well.
In a
sifter, combine the flour, baking powder and salt. Sift the
flour mixture directly onto the butter mixture. Reduce the
speed to low and beat until well mixed.
Divide the dough into 4 equal portions. Shape each
portion into a ball, then flatten the balls into disks. Wrap
in plastic wrap and refrigerate overnight. (The dough can be
prepared up to 3 days ahead.) Let it soften slightly at room
temperature before continuing.
Position a rack in the upper third of an oven and
preheat to 350°F. Butter 2 large baking sheets.
On a
lightly floured work surface, roll out a dough disk 1/4 inch
thick. Using cookie cutters, cut out desired shapes. Transfer
the cutouts to the prepared baking sheets. Gather up and
reroll the scraps and cut out more cookies. Repeat with the
remaining dough disks.
Bake
until the cookies are golden on the edges, about 8 minutes.
Transfer the cookies to wire racks and let cool completely.
Decorate the cookies as desired with colored sugars and
decorating pens. Store in an airtight container at room
temperature for up to 1 week. Makes 24 to 30 cookies,
depending on cutter size.

Pumpkin Crackle Custard
Even dessert gets
dressed up for the holiday. Here, the addition of pumpkin
puree transforms a classic crème brûlée into a fitting finale
for a Halloween feast.
1 1/2
cups heavy cream 2 star anise 4 cups water 1 cup
unsweetened pumpkin puree 3 egg yolks 3/4 cup firmly
packed light brown sugar 3/4 tsp. ground cinnamon 1/8
tsp. ground cloves 1/4 tsp. ground allspice Pinch of
freshly grated nutmeg 1 1/2 tsp. vanilla
extract
Directions: In a saucepan over
medium heat, combine the cream and star anise. Heat until
bubbles form along the edges of the pan. Remove from the heat,
cover and let steep for 30 minutes.
Preheat
an oven to 325ºF.
Remove the star anise from the cream and discard.
Reheat the cream over medium heat just until bubbles form
around the edges again. Remove from the heat.
In
another saucepan, bring the water to a boil over high heat and
keep warm.
Put
the pumpkin puree in a bowl and whisk in the egg yolks. Add
1/2 cup of the brown sugar, the cinnamon, cloves, allspice and
nutmeg and whisk until well combined. Pour 1/2 cup of the hot
cream into the pumpkin mixture, whisking constantly. Add the
remaining 1 cup cream and whisk to combine. Stir in the
vanilla.
Ladle the pumpkin custard into six 1/2-cup ramekins
or custard cups, dividing evenly. Transfer them to a baking
pan in which they fit snugly but do not touch. Pour in the
boiling water to reach halfway up the sides of the ramekins.
Bake until the custards are set in the center, 25 to 30
minutes. Remove the custards from the water bath and let cool
at room temperature for 15 minutes, then cover and refrigerate
until cold.
Preheat a broiler.
Sprinkle a thin layer of the remaining 1/4 cup
brown sugar evenly over the tops of the custards. Place them 2
to 3 inches under the broiler just until the sugar
caramelizes, 1 to 2 minutes. Or, using a kitchen torch, melt
the sugar according to the manufacturer’s instructions. Serve
warm, or chill, uncovered, and serve cold. Serves 6.

Spiderweb Sugar
Cookies Adapted from a recipe
by Sharon Bowers
1/2 cup (1 stick)
unsalted butter, softened 3/4 cup sugar 1
egg 2 teaspoon vanilla 2 cups all-purpose
flour 1 teaspoon baking powder 1/2 teaspoon salt 1
cup chocolate chips 1 batch Royal Icing (see below)
Food coloring
Directions: Cream the butter
and sugar. Add the egg and beat until fluffy. Blend in the
vanilla. Sift in the flour, baking powder, and salt, mixing
until just combined. Wrap the dough in plastic wrap and chill
for 1 hour.
Preheat the oven to
350 degrees. On a floured surface, roll half of the dough to
1/8-inch thick. Cut into circles using a 3-inch round cookie
cutter or the top of a drinking glass. Gather and reroll
scraps. Repeat with remaining dough. Place the cookies on a
greased baking sheet and bake for about 8 minutes, until just
golden. Do not allow cookies to brown.
To decorate, melt the
chocolate chips in the microwave in a heatproof bowl for 1
minutes. The chips may look unmelted, but stir them with a
spoon to see if they have actually softened before putting
them in for another minute, if necessary. Spoon the melted
chocolate into a zipper-lock bag. Seal the bag, pressing out
any air. Use a toothpick to make a very tiny hole in one
corner of the bag to release a very thin stream of chocolate
for writing.
To make the
spiderwebs, spread white royal icing smoothly over the
surface. Immediately, before the icing can set, pipe a spiral
of chocolate over the surface, starting in the middle and
working outward. Starting in the center, use a toothpick to
pull outward through the icing, making a spiderweb design.
|
Royal Icing
1 egg white*
1
teaspoon lemon juice 1 1/2 cups
confectioners' sugar
Directions: With beaters or a
standing mixer, whip the egg white and lemon juice until
frothy. At medium speed, beat in the confectioners' sugar, a
little at a time, until the mixture is thick but still liquid
enough to beat. Then beat on high until the mixture is thick
and glossy, about 3 minutes. Cover the surface with plastic
wrap while waiting to use it. Royal icing will set to a firm,
glossy finish when applied to a cookie. The icing can be
stored, tightly covered, in the refrigerator for up to a week.
*RAW EGG WARNING The
American Egg Board states: "There have been warnings against
consuming raw or lightly cooked eggs on the grounds that the
egg may be contaminated with Salmonella, a bacteria
responsible for a type of food poisoning....Healthy people
need to remember that there is a very small risk and treat
eggs and other raw animal foods accordingly. Use only properly
refrigerated, clean, sound-shelled, fresh, grade AA or A eggs.
Avoid mixing yolks and whites with the shell."

Halloween Doughnuts
1 1/2 cups milk 1/4 cup
vegetable shortening 1/4 cup sugar 1/4 cup mashed
potatoes 1 package (about 2 teaspoons) dry active
yeast 1/4 cup warm water 3 1/2 cups all-purpose flour,
plus more for dipping cutters 1 1/4 teaspoons salt 1/2

large egg 1/2 teaspoon pure vanilla extract Vegetable
oil, for frying Maple Orange Glaze, recipe
follows Chocolate Glaze, recipe follows Sprinkles
(optional)
Directions: Place milk in a
medium saucepan over medium heat. Bring just to a boil, and
remove from heat. Stir in shortening, sugar, and potatoes. Let
sit until lukewarm. In the bowl of an electric mixer fitted
with the paddle attachment, place yeast and warm water (105
degrees to 115 degrees). Beat on low speed to combine. Turn
off mixer, and let stand until creamy, about 5 minutes.
Place flour, salt, and baking powder in a medium bowl;
whisk to combine, and set aside. Spray a large bowl with
cooking spray; set aside. Add the milk mixture to the yeast
mixture, and beat on the lowest speed until combined. Beat in
egg and vanilla. Add dry ingredients, and beat until
moistened. Switch to next highest speed, and beat until a
soft, smooth dough forms, about 5 minutes. Transfer to
prepared bowl. Cover with plastic wrap, and let dough to rise
until it doubles in bulk, about 2 hours.
Spray 2 sheets of parchment
with cooking spray. Roll the dough out between the parchment
to a 1-inch thickness. Transfer to refrigerator, and let rest
for 20 minutes. Remove top layer of parchment. Using a 2
1/2-inch round cutter, cut out doughnuts as close together as
possible, dipping cutter in flour before each cut. Use a
3/4-inch round cutter to cut a hole in center of each
doughnut. Line a baking sheet with paper towels; set aside.
Heat 4 inches of oil in a large stockpot to 375 degrees F.
Working in batches so as not
to crowd the pan, fry doughnuts until golden brown, about 1
1/2 minutes per side. Use a slotted spoon to transfer to
prepared baking sheet to drain and cool. Dip the top of each
doughnut in glaze, alternating between the maple-orange and
chocolate flavors. Coat glaze with sprinkles, if desired. Turn
right side up to air dry.
