Halloween treats don't get any cuter. We made these mini so you can pop one in your mouth and still have room for some candy. If you're not a fan of candy corn, get festive with orange and black sprinkles. But don't reserve these for Halloween alone, top with colorful gumdrops or jelly beans to suit the occasion and your plan. Applesauce is a great swap for oil in cake mixes and baked goods. You get all the richness without the added calories. Lite whipped topping as frosting is another easy cheat you can feel good about.
