Image of My Entry:

So, recipe. Rather a straight forward one.

I used

Filling;
1 pkg (8oz) cream cheese
1 egg
1 tsp vanilla extract
1 3/4 tsp pumpkin spice emulsion
1/2 tsp cinnamon
1/4 tsp nutmeg
1/3 cup sugar
*Optional* 1/3 cup sour cream

Crust;
1 TBSP stick butter
1/2 tsp vanilla
less than 1/4 cup of sugar
three "sheets" of graham crackers, crushed/pulverized.

preheat oven to 325 degrees F.

Blend cream cheese, sugar, vanilla, and the emulsion together till creamy, testing to see if the taste is to your preference. (Can also add sour cream in this step if you include sour cream. I made batches of both with and w/o) Then add in the egg.

Melt the butter and bowl into a bowl with the crushed cracker crumbs, sugar, and vanilla. Mix together. Grabbing a muffin pan and spray with Pam, or any other cooking spray you like. Gently use a paper towel to absorb the excess spray. Spoon in the crumb mixture and gently press down.

At this point, if you like and have the patience, you could bake the crust a little, maybe 5 or so minutes to help it set up, but I did not have the patience, so I poured in the batter and placed tray in the oven. About 8-10 minutes, or more. You want the batter to be firm, but still jiggly. Or just use a toothpick. If it comes out with a little bit of batter, its done. Frankly I know its done when the top cracks a little, which to some means its over-done, but not burned. Oh well.

They are mushroom tops, stuffed with blended tofu seasoned with garlic and Italian herbs, and topped with a black olive slice to make the pupil. Inspired by this recipe. We didn't have the dried tomatoes, to naturally I improvised with ketchup to give them a bit of the desired color. (Surprisingly, they tasted even better that way! xD)

Oh Biggles, you tease! You know that means I have to make those!!! [<3]

Irish! I totally understand that not everyone does Halloween, but if you care to share any food goodies that you like to make that are seasonal or a local kinda treat, that still counts!
