Trick or Treat and give me something good to eat. Well I just did. Who dose not like mashed potatoes? But I am giving you mashed potatoes for a spooky treat. These snacks have the rich creamy texture of mashed potatoes (since that is what they are)but the spooky look of Halloween. The first time I made these every body was like what are those and I would be like its mashed potatoes but nobody would believe me till they ate one. You can be wild with creativity with these snacks. I use green and yellow mixed for food coloring but you can use what ever color you want. Sometimes you can do a mix but I like solid colors better I think it makes them look more life like. Use the snacks as a side to any Halloween delightful delicious dinner. It goes along with any thing because they are just mashed potatoes with some Halloween flare. They add this Halloween touch.Halloween is made for yummy and spooky treats and these are perfect they look and taste Halloween and since I love Halloween when I get the first bite of a spooky dish I am in heaven. Enjoy your scary snack.
