Moonlit Pumpkin Patch Pudding Snacks
These Moonlit Pumpkin Patch Pudding Snacks are fun festive way to get everyone excited for Halloween. Featuring oreo cookie moons, cookie crumbs, mellow crème pumpkins and some frosted vines over chocolate pudding, they're a spooky snack that's equal parts delicious and spooky!
Ingredients
- chocolate pudding cups
- oreo cookies halved
- mellowcreme candy pumpkins
- green frosting
Instructions
- Separate the oreos into two piles, one for the 'moons' where the cream came off on them, and the other for the plain side without cream.
- Crush the plain oreo halves in a blender until they resemble fine dirt. Spoon the 'dirt' into the pudding cups until level.
- Out of the halved 'moon' pile, pick the ones that are most unblemished and best resemble a moon. Stick it in the back of the pudding cup, just far enough in that it stands up by itself.
- Top each dirt cup with two candy pumpkins. Use the green frosting to pipe a few 'vines' across the pumpkins to connect them.
- Repeat as needed for the number of pudding cups you need. Serve immediately.
Notes
- Making these for young children or for a school/room snack? For less mess make them right in the plastic container the pudding comes in! They're still super cute, but create less mess to deal with and perfect for little hands.
- Don't want to load the kids up on too much sugar? Use a 'sugar free' chocolate pudding instead.
- If you have extra ingredients, store them separately and then make another batch of Halloween pudding snacks when ready to enjoy them again.
