Get ready for Halloween here in Alexandria, VA in a fun and tasty way by making some pumpkin-spice flavored treats! Our Arrive Alexandria Blog is sharing some of our very favorite Halloween-themed treats that you will enjoy making at your apartment almost as much as you enjoy munching on them.
Pumpkin-Inspired Recipes
Soft Pumpkin Sugar Cookies with Caramel Cream Cheese Frosting
Just think of how much you love sugar cookies, cream cheese, and caramel, individually. Then imagine putting that all together for a cookie that perfectly complements itself and gives you the happiness of a successful new recipe. The potential is great with this cookie.
Pumpkin Cinnamon Rolls
These pumpkin cinnamon rolls are absolutely heavenly. What you’ll need: active dry yeast, sugar, brown sugar, ground cinnamon, flour, pumpkin puree, heavy cream, sugar, butter, salt, vanilla extract, ground ginger, ground allspice, an egg, vegetable oil, cream cheese, milk, and toasted pumpkin seeds to garnish (optional).
Pumpkin Pie Cream Puffs from A Farmgirl’s Dabbles
For a light dessert at your next dinner party, try making these pumpkin pie cream puffs. These cream puffs are great bite-sized finishes to any meal. These pumpkin cream puffs are filled with maple whipped cream and pumpkin pie filling — an amazing burst of fall flavor.
Turtle Pumpkin Pie
This recipe takes pumpkin pie to a whole new level! It combines the classic pumpkin-spice staple with drizzled caramel, chopped pecans, and airy whipped topping. Yum!
Although we do love that sweet pumpkin spice flavor in our food, pumpkin isn’t just a one-trick pony. Savory pumpkin dishes pack a flavor burst in each bite, and Huffington Post comes through with 39 Savory Recipes for Pumpkin Because It’s About More Than Just Lattes — but if you’re craving a latte, we’ve got that, too: Pumpkin Pie Latte from Taste of Home.
We hope everyone in our apartment community has a wonderful October filled with good eats. Happy Halloween from Arrive Alexandria!
