Your Halloween party appetizers should be as creative as your costume. Take a bite out of Fright Night with Halloween appetizers that give a new meaning to finger foods.
Pumpkin-Shape Meatball Biscuits
This recipe is semi-homemade. Purchased, frozen cooked meatballs are wrapped in a pack of refrigerated biscuits, along with cheese and pesto. Fresh rosemary leaves give this a sophisticated flare, making it the perfect Halloween finger food for adults.
Spider Halloween Deviled Eggs
Give classic deviled eggs a Halloween makeover with avocado, lime, and a dash of food coloring. The eggs have a subtle spiderweb pattern on the outside, while inside they're stuffed with a creamy green filling.
Spooky Strawberry Pumpkin Patch
Strawberries in orange candy coating are the "pumpkins" in this Halloween party pumpkin patch. Make the lines on each little pumpkin with a steady hand and a piping bag and nestle them in a patch of cookie crumbs.
Monster Mouths
Add some childhood nostalgia to your Halloween party menu with Monster Mouths. Nothing harkens back to a lunch box quite like apples and peanut butter. The addition of candy corn teeth takes this to a whole new level.
Wicked Witch Hats
A wicked witch is definitely not sweet, and neither is her hat. Blue corn tortilla chips give these salty, cheesy, and slightly spicy Halloween appetizers their dark color, and a thin carrot peel adds some witchy style. Serve with extra chips to dip.
Pumpkin Seed Dip
Put those pumpkin seeds to good use! Here they're blended with jalapeno, garlic, and lime for a scary-good Halloween dip. Serve the finished dip with fresh veggies and spiced shrimp.
Graveyard Taco Dip
Dig into this spooky graveyard—if you dare! You'll soon discover that this Halloween party appetizer is actually a tasty taco dip. Layers of refried beans, lettuce, and black olives mimic dirt and grass. Eerie shapes cut from tortilla shells complete the spooky Halloween landscape.
Mr. Bones
Get the kids involved with the Halloween party menu. Prepare the base of pressurized cheese spread on each cracker and let the kids make their pretzel skeletons.
Avocado-Stuffed Mushrooms
Halloween finger foods don't have to be ghoulish to make. In just 30 minutes, you'll have a crowd-pleasing dish that's stuffed with a fresh avocado filling.
Loaded Potato Dip
A hearty dip, like this loaded baked potato dish, is the perfect way to fuel up for a night of trick-or-treating. As one BHG home cook shared, "This looks absolutely scrumptious!"
Sloppy Joe Bombs
Don't get stuck assembling sandwiches for a crowd. This Halloween appetizer starts with refrigerated biscuit dough that's stuffed with homemade sloppy joes. Serve these bites with tomato sauce for dipping.
Korean Fried Chicken
Each ultra-crunchy bite of Korean fried chicken is coated with a sweet and spicy gochujang glaze. Don't have a deep fryer? We've included a quick air fryer option.
