Easy Halloween Recipes from Get Away Today
UPDATED OCTOBER 2024. Have you ever experienced Halloween time at the Disneyland Resort? Or maybe you’ve done Mickey’s Not So Scary Halloween Party at Walt Disney World? Both coasts are so fun and festive! Disney goes all out decorating for their Halloween celebrations when you can see favorite characters dressed in their costumes, and Disney villains out in the park.
But, maybe the best part about Halloween at Disney are the yummy Halloween treats that pop up throughout the parks this time of year. Special goodies include pumpkin flavored muffins topped with cream, Mickey Halloween cookies, hot caramel apple cider, pumpkin cheesecake, and of course (our favorite) - all the beautifully spookily decorated (and delicious) Halloween caramel apples!
To bring some of Disney’s Halloween Time Magic into your home this season, we have gathered some super easy Halloween recipes from our Get Away Today team to recreate classic theme park treats and put our own little twist on some new ones.
