Planning a Halloween Party, but don't know what to serve? Here are some scary ideas.

Place plastic spiders in ice trays and fill with colored water. Freeze. Float them in punch.

Punch

1 64 oz bottle 7-Up
1 c raspberry sherbet
1 gallon orange juice
1 gallon cranberry juice

Mix juices together, add sherbet and stir until melted. Add 7-Up. Chill. Pour into punch bowl and add spider ice cubes.

Spooky Cakes

1 box devil's food cake mix
1 1/2 c coke
3 eggs
1/2 c oil

Preheat oven to 350 degrees. Grease and flour large, rectangular baking pan 13 x 9-inch.

Combine cake mix, coke, eggs and oil in large mixing bowl. Beat on medium speed of electric mixer for 2 minutes. Pour into pan and bake at 350 degrees for 25 to 30 minutes or until wooden pick inserted in center comes out clean.

Cool in pan for 10 minutes, then invert on wire rack. Allow to cool completely. Then cut halloween design cakes using ghost, bat, pumpkin cookie cutters.

Frosting

1 can ready-to-spread white frosting
1 can ready-to-spread chocolate frosting
orange food color

Divide white frosting in half and add orange food color to one half. Frost cakes using white frosting for ghosts, orange for pumpkins and chocolate for bats. Decorate with candy corns and M&M candies.
