This weekend might be the first of November, but that doesn’t mean you can’t finish off halloween with fun snacks and treats with the kids.
How fun would it be to have the kids wake up to these fun halloween themed poptarts.
These are made with puff pastry and any shapped cookie cutter you want, then you just fill with your choice of filling. Then you can add frosting or thin icing, or frosting and sprinkles, whatever you want.
So quick easy, and taste delicious, kidd will compare them to the store bought stuff, but they’ll love having these because they’re so warm and gooey inside and taste so much better.

Use the tines of a fork to seal the edges of each pop tart.
Poke holes the top of your tarts with the fork tines so steam can escape (and they don’t end up big and puffy).
