Snack Supplies:
Here’s what you’ll need to create your melted witches. Most items can be found at your local grocery or craft store.
- Chocolate Pudding Cups – one container per person
- Halloween Oreos
- Paper Straws
- Basic Craft Scissors
- School Glue
- Plastic Baggie
- Rolling Pin
- Kitchen Scissors
- Halloween Colored Sprinkles
Directions:
- First you will want to assemble the “legs” of the witches. This is done by cutting a paper straw in half {one per pudding cup} and attaching some cardstock boots to each piece.
- Set those aside to them dry completely.
- Once you are ready to assemble your treats, open all the pudding cups you will be making/serving. Set those aside.
- Place your Oreos in a plastic baggie and seal close.
- Take a rolling pin {or other kitchen utensil} and crush the Oreos till they look like dirt.
- Now take a spoonful of crushed Oreos and place them on top/inside the pudding cups, along with some sprinkles.
- To finish the Melted Pudding Witches, place the “legs” in the pudding cup, facing upwards.
- Serve immediately or store in fridge until serving time.
