Description

These Halloween Witch Cupcakes are a spooky and fun treat perfect for Halloween celebrations. Using simple, everyday ingredients like pre-baked cupcakes, OREO cookies, and colorful icing, you can create adorable witch hat toppers with chocolate kisses and festive sprinkles. The green and orange icing adds a vibrant touch, making these cupcakes a favorite party dessert for kids and adults alike.


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

  1. Prepare Cupcake Base: Ensure your 24 cupcakes are fully cooled and set them on a flat surface for decorating.
  2. 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.
  3. 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.
  4. Place Witch Hats: Gently press each prepared witch hat (OREO half with kiss) onto the top of the green icing on each cupcake.
  5. 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.
