This is a simple recipe that kids can really appreciate any time of the year, but will surely love during the Halloween season as they are a bit on the creepy side. Pepperoni Peepers are like mini pizza eyeballs that everyone will love- my kids sure did and they were SOO easy!!
Definitely fun for kids to make and easy on the wallet as well- its just a win-win when it comes to fun and eerie food for kids to make. Super simple and similar to the Halloween mummy dogs that kids rave about as well and still with a fun creep out factor gives this delightful yet gross Halloween recipe a big thumbs up from us!
