Ingredients
Scale
Cupcakes
- 24 Pre-baked cupcakes
Toppings
- 1 bag OREO cookies (about 36 cookies)
- 24 Chocolate kisses
- 2 cups green icing
- 2 cups orange icing
- Halloween colored sprinkles (as needed)
Instructions
- Prepare Cupcake Base: Ensure your 24 cupcakes are fully cooled and set them on a flat surface for decorating.
- Make Witch Hats: Carefully twist apart the OREO cookies to keep the cream side intact. Use the half with the cream as the base of the witch hat. Place a chocolate kiss on top of the cream side to form the tip of the hat.
- Decorate Cupcakes: Using green icing, frost the tops of each cupcake to represent the witch’s face or hat base. Smooth it evenly across the surface.
- Place Witch Hats: Gently press each prepared witch hat (OREO half with kiss) onto the top of the green icing on each cupcake.
- Add Details: Use orange icing to pipe decorative accents around the hats or cupcake edges. Finish by sprinkling Halloween colored sprinkles around for extra festive flair.
Notes
- Use store-bought pre-baked cupcakes for convenience and time-saving.
- The OREO cookies combined with chocolate kisses create a simple yet visually striking witch hat.
- Green icing can be substituted with any favorite color, but green works best for a classic witch look.
- Decorate cupcakes just before serving to maintain freshness and the structural integrity of the witch hats.
- This is a wonderful Halloween party treat that kids will love to help make.
