Halloween Recipes: Easy Halloween Treats to Make in Your Dorm

Easy Halloween Recipes To Make In Your Dorm 

When I think of Halloween my first thought is CANDY! Halloween (just like most of the other holidays) is a time of the year when one is excused from the norms of acting like a normal human being and is allowed to turn into a wild creature(whether we’re talking about eating or behavior). I like to take this holiday as an opportunity to try every candy sold in the ‘Halloween Treats’ aisles at Target. Why not?

At home, my sister and I would always attempt getting fancy by baking delicious Halloween goods to give out instead of the stereotypical candies that are usually handed out (because who needs another tootsie roll?). Living in a dorm and not having an oven makes it difficult for one to bake goods for others. After some intense research, I found some simple but fun recipes to make some Halloween treats to share with your friends.
