Fall food “pins” coming to life!

by {Not So} Suddenly Susan on September 25, 2012

I’m sure I’m not the only one out there who wastes plenty of time pinning on Pinterest, only to never look back at the pins again.  Over summer I took a few pinned ideas and turned them into school projects.  This month, I’m taking a few pinned ideas and turning them into party food.Fall always makes me happy. I love the weather, the leaves and the air.  So I get inspired to try new things.

Pumpkin Fluff

I saw this just in time for a party at work.  Mine didn’t come out as ‘pretty’, her fluff looks better than mine, but it is delicious! I served it at work, and everyone enjoyed it.

Super easy to make:

Ingredients

1 (16 ounce) container frozen whipped topping, thawed
1 (5 ounce) package instant vanilla pudding mix
1 (15 ounce) can solid pack pumpkin
1 teaspoon pumpkin pie spice

Directions

In a large bowl, mix together instant vanilla pudding mix, pumpkin and pumpkin pie spice. Fold in the thawed frozen whipped topping. Chill in the refrigerator until serving.

 

Fall Cocktail

Directions

Original: 2 parts ginger ale, 2 parts fresh cider, 1 part bourbon

Mine: 3 parts ginger ale, 2 parts fresh cider, 1 part bourbon

I liked the 2/2/1 mixture, but really liked the 3/2/1 mixture ;)

Mini Pumpkin Pies

These look to be my favorite. Every year I opt for a pie instead of a cake with my family. The directions say it will be just as easy… So I will also be reporting back, as I haven’t made these yet!

That cocktail looks so good! My friends and I do a scary movie marathon every October, I may need to bookmark this post to take that drink!

I love that you made all these! Pumpkin fluff is delicious – my sister has been making it for years and it’s always a special treat I ask her to prepare for events! I haven’t made anything off Pinterest lately, but there are so many delicious fall ideas, its my goal to try a few before the season is up :)

That pumpkin fluff is similar, if not the same, as pumpkin mousse that I make and it’s delicious!
