Ghoul-Ade
For this recipe, you will need 1 envelope of grape flavored Kool-Aid, one envelope of orange flavored Kool-Aid, granulated white sugar, and one quart of ginger ale.
In a large pitcher, mix grape flavored Kool-Aid, the orange flavored Kool-Aid, 2 cups of sugar, and 3 quarts of water. Right before you serve this Ghoul-Ade, add the quart of ginger ale to the pitcher.
Brain Cell Salad
For this recipe, you will need one 16 ounce box of blueberry Jello mix, one 16 ounce carton of small curd cottage cheese, one 16.5 ounce can of blueberries in syrup, and blue food coloring.
Prepare the Jello according the back of the package and let chill for 4 hours. Scoop the carton of cottage cheese into a bowl then drain. Drain the syrup from the can of blueberries then mix it in with the cottage cheese. Add enough blue food coloring to make the cottage cheese appear gray. When serving, place a couple of spoonfuls of the Jello on a plate and top with the cottage cheese mixture.
Frozen Jack-O-Lanterns
For this recipe, you need 12 navel oranges, 12 cinnamon sticks, and a half gallon of dark chocolate ice cream.
Gently cut the tops off the oranges and hollow to pulp from each one. Make a small hole in each top for the cinnamon stick. Also gently hollow out the pulp of the orange. You are left with just the thick shell of the orange. Carefully carve faces into each orange as you would a pumpkin. Fill each orange with chocolate ice cream. Stick a cinnamon stick in each top and place back on top of the orange shell.
