Cutest Halloween Snacks To Make

Are you throwing a Halloween party or attending one this year? One thing I love about Halloween parties is getting to plan what kind of snacks I could make that are themed for the season. Making your own snacks can be a creative way of celebrating and a fun way to show your spirit for the parties. This article will list some of the cutest and easiest Halloween snacks to make this year. Happy Halloween!

1. Pretzel Spiderweb

For this snack, you’ll need two ingredients: pretzel sticks and chocolate to melt. You can have white or brown chocolate; they can create cute spiderwebs. 

After you have melted your chocolate, pour it into a piping bag so you can draw the webs. With your pretzel sticks, place them in a star shape. Once you like the shape, you’ll use the melted chocolate to draw your designs, placing more chocolate in the middle to glue the sticks together. 

2. Strawberry Ghosts

For this recipe, you’ll need strawberries and more chocolate to melt. After you melt your white chocolate and wash your strawberries, use a toothpick or something to dip your strawberries to cover them entirely with white chocolate. 

Once your strawberry is covered, and your chocolate has hardened, you can take black icing or melted brown chocolate to create your ghostly face. You can have fun with this and draw different faces on your strawberries. 

3. Graveyard Dirt Cups

To start with this recipe, you’ll start by taking a chocolate pudding mix and mixing it with the appropriate amount of milk it calls for. To make this pudding a little fluffier, mix it in whipped topping. For the dirt texture, you’ll take oreo cookies and crush them up after digging out the creme. 

Once you have this part of the recipe, you’ll take your little clear cups and get your graveyard set up. You’ll start by putting crushed cookie, pudding, crushed cookie, pudding, and crushed cookie. You can use piping back to place your pudding or scoop it into the cup. For the gravestone on top of the dirt, you’ll take a cookie of the desired shape and draw with black icing to look like a gravestone by writing things like, “RIP.” You can decorate with spooky candy like gummy worms, candy bones, pumpkins, and spiders. 

4. Monster Rice Crispie

For this recipe, you’ll need your rice crispies, either homemade or store-bought, food coloring, and chocolates. After you have melted your white chocolate and separated it into different bowls, you can add your food coloring to the different bowls to create the desired colors for your monsters. You’ll dip or pour this on your rice crispy, and before it completely dries, add your candy eyes to finalize your little monsters. 

5. Spider Oreos

You just need Oreos, pretzel sticks, and candy eyes for this. This is a simple treat to make, and so cute (I mean, spooky). You’ll take your pretzel sticks and stick them on the sides of your oreo to create the spider legs. Lastly, you will use icing or melted chocolate to glue your candy eyes on your spiders. You can also draw the eyes with melted chocolate and icing if you want. Some of these treats have candy corn as spider fangs. 

6. Jello Syringe Shots

For this recipe, you will create your Jell-O the same, but instead of the cold water that your recipe calls for, you’ll add chilled vodka instead. Once you have your mixture, you’ll add it to your syringes and set them in the fridge to chill. And that’s it! Once they have chilled, they are ready for your spooky Halloween party. They can also be any color, but red stands out for Halloween Vibes. 

7. Pumpkin Rice Crispy

In this recipe, you’ll make your rice crispies the same as normal, but when you are melting your marshmallows, you’ll add orange food coloring to get that pumpkin color. Once you have your marshmallows ready and add your rice crispies, you will mix them in your bowl. 

When the marshmallow is cooled down, you will take this mixture and form your rice crispies into a ball or pumpkin shape. Once you like how this looks, take your pretzel stumps or use chocolate, like rolos, to make the stump. Next, you’ll use green icing to design the leaf and vine to really add the effect of the pumpkin.

8. Spiderweb Brownies

For this recipe, you’ll make your favorite brownies – it can be anything you’d like. Once they have cooled, you’ll take white icing and design a web in the corner of your brownies. 

9. Marshmallow and Pretzel Skeletons

For this recipe, you’ll need cake pop sticks and place a large marshmallow on the end of it as the skeleton head. For the bodies, you’ll add pretzels covered in white chocolate to represent the ribcage and other bones. Lastly, for the skeleton head, you can take melted chocolate or black icing to draw any face you want. To keep everything together, stick another marshmallow underneath the pretzels, it can be another big one or a smaller one, and you have your new, completed skeleton friend!

10.  Jack O’ Lantern Brownies

This is another brownie recipe that you can try out! Once your brownies are baked and ready, you’ll need marshmallows, icing, and melted chocolate. 

You can either melt chocolate and color it with food coloring or buy orange candy melts. When you have it melted, you will dip your marshmallows in them and set them on top of your brownie, and you can have some orange candy surrounding the marshmallows to add that melted effect. On top, you place a small chocolate chip for the pumpkin stem and use melted chocolate or icing to design your Jack O’ Lantern. 

Whether making these Halloween snacks for school, a party, or for your get-together, you will surely find some cute and spooky ideas in this article!
