Its almost Halloween, but when you're too old for trick or treating it may seem hard to be in the holiday spirit. There are plenty of ways to welcome Halloween into your life without loads of candy, and these snacks are your first step to the perfect adult Halloween party.

1. Caramel Apple "Cake" Pops

There is nothing more difficult than biting into a full sized caramel apple. Why must something so delicious be so difficult to eat? Think again, with these perfect individual portions of your favorite treat. You can cover them in nuts, toffee bits, chocolate—the options are endless!

Find the full recipe here.

2. Zombie Eyeballs

All you need is a bag of square pretzel "snaps," a bag of M&M's, some yellow or green chocolate melts and a little bit of chocolate icing to spook your guests. If you prefer white eyeballs, use white chocolate Hershey's kisses or white chocolate melts. Easy, sweet and salty.

3. Jalapeno Popper Mummies

Add a little spice to your Halloween appetizers with these adorable mummy wrapped peppers. Slice the peppers in half, add the filling as shown in the recipe, wrap with dough and bake. With a cheesy filling and a baked puffy wrap, they are sure to please a hungry crowd.

4. Babybel Cheese Eyeballs

Perhaps the easiest of the recipes I have included on the list, this appetizer is mess free and appealing to the eye. All you need is Babybel cheese, some red food coloring and a handful of fresh black olives. Start by unwrapping each individual cheese wheel from its wrap. Use a paint brush to create veins out of the red food dye, add an olive slice on top and, voila!

Find the full recipe here.

5. Mini Donut Spiders

If there is one comfort food you need at your party, its chocolate covered mini donuts. This easy recipe adds a few broken pretzels and some M&M's to create a little spider friend that tastes even better than he looks.

Find the full recipe here.

6. PB&J Apple Bites

And of course, for you health nuts out there, peanut butter and jelly apple sandwiches. Spread peanut butter and jelly on two sliced apple halves and use nuts or marshmallows to create teeth.

So what are you waiting for? Invite your friends over, pick out the perfect costume and get cooking. Happy Halloween!

Let's face it, last semester you woke up with enough time to brush your teeth and get to class and even then you were about 10 minutes late and rollin' in with some pretty unfortunate bed head. This semester we will set our alarms, wake up with time to get ready, and get to class on time!
