Halloween Wreaths
Everyone's favorite Halloween sweet is no longer limited to the candy dish! This easy-to-make wreath utilizes the colorful candy for a fun homemade decoration.
1. You’ll need a Styrofoam wreath (ours is 16 in.), black duct tape, a hot-glue gun, a wide ribbon and candy corn (we used Brach’s).
2. Cover the wreath in tape.
3. To get a sense of how the corns will fit, lay them around the wreath in single rows, with one row pointing left and the next pointing right, but don’t glue down. (It won’t take long and your final product will be more polished.) Remove the corn from the wreath and hot-glue the pieces in the pattern one at a time, starting from the outer edge of the wreath inward, until you’ve covered the entire top and side.
4. Repeat the process in the center, starting at the same point as you did for the top so that you can cover any corn-free space with the ribbon when you’re finished.
5. Wrap ribbon through the wreath at the candy corn seam, tie into a bow and hang on a sturdy nail.

A Cookie Swap Party
COOKIE RECIPES FOR THE SWAP
Oatmeal Dulce de Leche Marshmallow! I'm so into Dulce de Leche, that thick delicious caramel! I've been putting it in everything lately. You could make these with any Oatmeal Cookie recipe, but this time I used a lacy oatmeal cookie. The lacy cookies are really thin and delicate so don't over do the filling. I love this oatmeal cookie recipe because it's chewy in the center and ever so slightly crunchy on the outsides... oh heaven help me. I love these cookies.
Make these small my friends... they are oh so rich! I'm not kidding...for each cookie I used only a teaspoon of batter...
Oatmeal Dulce de Leche Marshmallow Cookie Pies!
Cream: 1 c. soft butter 1 c. brown sugar 1/2 c. white sugar
Beat in 2 eggs one at a time
Stir in 1 tsp. vanilla
Combine 1 1/2 c. flour 1 tsp. baking soda
Mix into creamed ingredients
Blend in 3 c. old fashioned oats
Preheat oven to 350*
Spray cookie sheet with cooking spray
Drop by rounded spoonfuls onto cookie sheet
Press rounded dough, making it flatter, but not too thin.
Bake 8-10 minutes
While cookies are baking, make filling
Filling:1 can Nestle Dulce de Leche {found in the Spanish food aisle of your grocery store)
Marshmallow Creme
When cookies are cool, spread Dulce de Leche on one side and Marshmallow Creme on the other side (all the way to the edges) Optional: Melt chocolate bark and drizzle over the cookies.
These are super-rich so truly be careful and don't put too much filling inside or they'll give you sugar overload!
