I enjoy making Halloween treats to distribute at work. Sometimes homemade treats are not a popular item to give to trick-or-treaters. However they do work well for folks that know the giver.
I love the smell of cookie dough; I also enjoy eating it. This time I resisted the temptation to indulge myself. That’s a big step for me!Once the cookies were baked resistance flew out the door and yes, I have to sample them to be sure the taste is acceptable. I used less sugar this time and I do not notice a difference in the cookies.My treat bag stuffers this year are simple. Bubbles, nail files, stickers and the cookies make up the special treat. The orange cups are cupcake cups that I bought on clearance a previous Halloween. I use paper shreds to make the bag a little festive and tie it with orange twine. The recipient’s name is written on the backside of the foam spider.
The treat bags were a hit at work and I took the extra cookies for folks to come by and indulge. Coffee and cookies, a perfect pairing. And, no more temptation for me at home.
Whether you are planning Halloween treats to give to co-workers or neighbors, these are also good as Halloween party favors.
Now, I can start planning the Thanksgiving and Christmas treats.
