You'll have a frightfully fun time making these easy, spooky treats, perfect for Halloween. If using our Homemade Instant Pudding recipe for the Graveyard Cups, just add 2 teaspoons of cocoa powder for some rich, chocolatey goodness.

Preparation

Witches’ Hats:

Fill an ice cream cone ¼–½ of the way with small candies, then use a piping bag or plastic bag with a small hole cut at the tip to pipe frosting along the rim of the cone. Lightly press a cookie face-side up onto the top of the cone. Place hat cookie-side down, then pipe frosting along the line where cone meets cookie. Place a strip of a fruit roll, pre-trimmed to your desired width and length, onto the frosting. Repeat with remaining cones, cookies, and candy. Handle finished hats from the bottom.

Mini Witches’ Hats:

Lay the cookies bake-side up on a flat surface. Use a piping bag or plastic bag with a small hole cut at the tip to pipe black frosting along the rim of a Muddy Bite, then press it onto a mini cookie. If desired, pipe black frosting along the line where cone meets cookie with more black frosting. Press in red candy beads, or line with a strip of a fruit roll, pre-trimmed to your desired width and length.

Monster Apples:

With apple slices skin-side up, use a spoon to drag a small dollop of peanut butter lengthwise onto the apple’s surface. Lightly press pine nuts into peanut butter for teeth, leaving room for the candy eyes and kiwi slice. Tuck the cut side of the kiwi slice into the peanut butter below the pine nuts for a tongue. Press two candy eyes into the peanut butter above the pine nuts.

Boo-berry Sprites:

Lay blueberries bottom-side up. Using a piping bag or plastic bag with a small hole cut at the tip, pipe two dots of white frosting onto each blueberry. With a different piping bag or plastic bag with a smaller hole cut at the tip, pipe two smaller dots of black frosting onto the white dots to create eyes. Pair with mini witches' hats if desired.

Crispy Pumpkins:

Melt butter in a medium saucepan over low heat. Add marshmallows and stir until completely melted. Remove from heat. Working quickly, add Rice Krispies and stir until the cereal is well-coated. Add a few drops of yellow food coloring, then stir. Add in a drop of red, then stir, adding more if necessary, stirring between each drop. Scoop out small portions of the mixture and roll them into balls with your hands. For the stem, snap pretzel sticks in half and poke one into each ball. For the leaves, cut pieces of taffy into triangles, and lightly press them onto the balls. For the vines, cut strips of taffy and roll into a thin vine with your fingers, then press into balls in a squiggly pattern.

Graveyard Cups:

Whack a sealed package of Oreos with a rolling pin to break them up into little pieces (if you end up needing to whack them more, place them into a gallon-size zip-top bag). Mix broken Oreos with pudding to create soil, then spoon portions of the mixture into small cups. Top with gummy worms, Sour Patch Kids, and red candy beads. Use a piping bag or plastic bag with a small hole cut at the tip to pipe the letters “RIP” in black frosting near the top end of each Milano cookie, then tuck the cookie into the pudding cup like a gravestone.
