Orange Fanta Halloween Cake {and Cupcakes!}- Easy And Delicious recipe

I've said it before, and I'll say it again - I DON'T BAKE. I mean, not really. I can make it if it comes out of a box or a package with specific instructions. My culinary skills are really more of the "let's toss some spices and things together until dinner forms" line of skills. I'm pretty successful that way. But baking is such a precise art that I rarely venture into new territory. Lately, however, I've been more and more about trying new things, and keeping to unprocessed, "whole" foods. I'm not about to pretend this recipe is healthy, but at least it has ingredients you can recognize and pronounce. :)

Movie Night Treats: M&M Pretzel Brownies

If you are brand new to C'mon Get Crafty, then you are about to learn what the others already know: I'm a movie freak. I love movies. I was a theatre major in college, and actress from elementary through my late twenties, and I absolutely adore films. I grew up watching everything from black and white classics to Disney. I'm not big on horror films, but everything else is fair game. So what do I typically suggest for family fun during the frigid Chicago winters? Movie Night!! Luckily for me, my husband and 5yo love movies too. So everyone is happy. So, now comes the story. I mean, typically movie nights are culled from our own ever-expanding library of DVD and Blu-rays. Occasionally we will splurge and rent something. Often the choice of film comes down to a drawing of names between the three of us old enough to have opinions. (Sorry H, 18 months doesn't count.)
