Halloween is just around the corner, and there are plenty of visually spectacular yet satisfyingly scrumptious treats that you can make for the whole family, like spider brownies or blueberry mummy muffins. All of those goodies are great for a hair-raising Halloween party, but sometimes you don’t want to stress about all of that added prep work a stunning dessert can require. If you still want a show stopping centerpiece (that’s perfect for getting the entire family into the kitchen), try bringing a little bit of the magic of Christmas to this haunted holiday. Gingerbread is often perfumed with warm spices that evoke the comfort of fall and nostalgic air of Christmas, so haunted Halloween gingerbread houses are a no-brainer – and other flavors are open to exploration if you’re not a huge fan of the pungent and spicy cookies!

Oreos are kind of perfect for the Halloween season already with their ghoulish black and white color palette, so what if you used them to make a perfect little haunted house? Well, in this kit, you’ll have all kinds of inspiration (and all the tools) for transforming the classic sandwich cookie into all kinds of scary characters. Cut them in half to make a bewitching bat or try your hand at a spider or skeleton. Either way, this cookie castle has all the prerequisites for a fun family project.

What is Halloween without some trick or treaters? With this special chocolate cookie house kit, you have the opportunity to add some of your favorite goblins and ghouls to the scene by embellishing some mouthwatering Sour Patch Kids. These lip-puckering confections are the star of the show for this family project. The icing can be used to make little mummies and ghosts (in addition to the normal mortaring of walls together), and candy jewels and extra sour sugar come in handy for creating the perfect treat (or trick).

Williams-Sonoma

If you simply can’t be bothered, or if baking and embellishing just isn’t your thing, you’re in luck; you can purchase a fully decorated (and completely customizable) haunted gingerbread house. The walls are baked in special molds, so you know there’s structural integrity, and each one is hand decorated with ghostly cookies and swirls of icing. This creepy chateau will be sure to impress all your party guests.
