Zombie Eyes {Hard-boiled Eggs}

My husband loves hard-boiled eggs. I usually prepare this for dinner or for lunch. The only difference I made for Halloween is to place half an olive on each, so they would look like eyes.

For this recipe you will need:

• 6 eggs
• salt and pepper to taste
• 4 tbsp mayo
• 6 olives
• 5 ham slices
• 5 cheddar cheese slices

Bring water to boil and carefully place the eggs in the pot for 15 to 20 minutes.

Finely chop ham.

Finely chop cheese.

Once the eggs are hard-boiled, break their shell and take it off.

Cut in half, trying not to break the whites.

Place the yolks in a separate bowl and reserve the whites.

Add the ham, mayo, and cheese in the bowl with the yolks and combine, until you create a chunky paste and add salt and pepper to taste. Filll the whites with this paste.

This is how I usually serve them, but this time...

I added some olives cutted in half so that they will look like eyes. 

I hope you enjoy this delicious recipe!! It's great for kids lunch too, or dinner. Or breakfast... Anytime, anywhere.

Jalapeño Dip

This jalapeño dip is really good, but spicy... This one time, because I wanted to make some "eyes" with it, I needed it thicker than a usual dip, so I only used the next ingredients:

Place the cream cheese, chiles and 1 tbsp Knorr's chicken broth bouillon in the food processor and...

... pulse.

Serve. Eat it with chips, Veggies, etc.

Note:

I usually add 1/2 cup of sour cream too, so it will be more "spreadable" and a little less spicy. I totally recommend leaving the carrots and onion in the dip, along with the chiles. 

Ghostly Cupcakes

For our Halloween party, I prepared these ghostly cupcakes. They tasted so good. People were asking for the recipe, so here it goes.

You will need:

• 1 French Vanilla cake mix (I used Duncan Hines)
• 1/3 cup vegetable oil
• 1 1/3 cup water
• 3 large eggs
• 1/2 tsp baking powder

First, you need to sift the cake mix and place it in a bowl.

Mix everything with a mixer and place the mixture in the cupcake molds.

Place them in the oven for 20 minutes, at 160°C.

Let them cool completely.

For the icing you will need:

• 1 Philadelphia bar (190 gr)
• 1/2 cup whipping cream
• 3 tbsp icing sugar

First, you will need to start mixing the cream cheese, until it starts fluffing.

Then, add the whipping cream and keep mixing, at low speed, for 5 minutes. Blend at medium speed for 3 minutes and go back to low. 

Add sugar and keep blending for 2 to 3 minutes.

Start placing the icing in top of the cupcakes.

For the ghosts eyes and mouth, I used mini dark kisses.

I topped with orange sugar half of the round cupcakes.

I used some chocolate sprinkles for the other half.
