Ohhhh, my friends. It’s ALMOST here! Can’t you just feel it in the air?! The most glorious part of the entire year: the BEGINNING of the holiday season.

And isn’t Halloween just the best holiday to start with? What better way to kick off three months filled with good eats and pretty treats than with a holiday that is 10000000% centered around candy! It’s like the perfect “gateway” holiday. It’s all fun and games and SNICKERS® bars without any of the stress that comes with the gift-giving, giant-meal-making, and extended-family-ing you’ll have to deal with in another month.

And I’ve got THE BEST Halloween recipe to share with you today. It combines my two great Halloween loves: Fun Size SNICKERS® candies from Walmart + food with spider webs on it ????????.
