Are you looking for some more quick, easy and fun Halloween treats? Well, you’ve come to the right place, because I love Halloween and I am all about minimal effort! Themed snacks and treats are all the rage, but I hate when the recipes are super complicated or overly artsy, don’t you? Quick and easy is the name of the game with these Nutter Butter Frankenstein Halloween Treats!
You don’t need very much time or very many things to put these little Frankenstein Halloween treats together, but I am sure they will deliver smiles to any little demons children that they get shared with!
Here is what you need:
Nutter Butter Cookies
Green candy coating
Small candy eyeballs
Chocolate Morsels
Black sprinkles, jimmies, or sugar
Black decorating icing
If you cannot find candy eyeballs, mini chocolate chip morsels make a great substitute.
Here is how you make them:
Melt the candy coating according to package directions giving special care not to overheat the candy. If the candy coating is overheated, it will be too thick. You can add 2 teaspoons of vegetable shortening to help thin the candy but do not add any other type of liquid as the candy will seize and harden.
Resting the cookie on a fork, spoon candy coating over the cookie and then tap the fork against the side of your bowl to remove excess candy coating.
Spoon sprinkles over one side of the cookie and place one chocolate morsel on each side. Add the candy eyeballs while the candy is still wet. Place on waxed paper to dry.
Allow candy coating to harden. Using a toothpick or small, clean paintbrush, draw a mouth on the cookie with the black decorating icing.
You can store these in an airtight container, at room temperature. I wouldn’t put them in the fridge, because it will cause the cookie to soften and become gummy.
Serve them up on a cute Halloween tray with some of these Quick N Cute Graham Cracker Ghosts at your Halloween bash!
