Thanks a bunch!Thank you so much for helping me out with the recipes. I hope that my host and I can settle on one that I am able to prepare and make. Thanks again. :)
 
How about the spider cake?Bake cake batter in the classic batter bowl. Invert onto a simple additions piece. Frost with chocolate frosting. Cover with chocolate sprinkles. Take 8 pieces of black licorice, and into each peice and place a toothpick into one end. Put the other end into the cake (to create the leggs). Use gumdrops for the eyes.

I did this at a recent cluster meeting and it was so cute!
