Have you seen these Halloween Oreos at your local grocery store?  I had so much fun making these cellophane treat bags.  There are 5 different Boo-Rific shapes on the cookies including a ghost, bats, a pumpkin, a cat & a witch and the best part is the filling is orange!  So cute for your Halloween treat bags!! 

I had a really hard time trying to take a picture of these cellophane treat bags but I think this was the best of the 20+ pictures that I took!  Thank goodness for digital photography, huh?  I think you can see the pumpkin & the ghost on these two Oreos.  Isn't that cute??  Of course, there were a few cookies that were cracked or had a broken edge so I was able to devour those that were not perfect enough for my treat bags while watching college football yesterday afternoon!
