⭐Why You'll Love This Recipe
Easy - Since this uses store-bought donuts, there is no baking or even turning on an oven.
Kids Can Help - Remember what I said about no baking? That means kids can help make these.
Quick - You can make a bunch of these at one time, making them perfect for a party!
🥣Ingredients
• Donuts - I used a variety pack containing plain, chocolate and powdered sugar, but you can use any of your favorites.
• Gel icing - You don't need a lot. The icing is only to get the candy eyeballs to stick to the donuts. You can use one small tube and the color doesn't matter.
• Wilton Candy Eyes - These can be found in the baking aisle at the grocery store.
• Vampire Fangs - You can get these at Amazon or a Halloween store. I used a glow-in-the-dark variety, but any plastic fangs that are meant to fit over your teeth will work well.
📋Step by Step Instructions
STEP 1: First, take your donuts and stick the vampire fangs into the center of each of them.
STEP 2: Next, use your frosting as glue and stick on those candy eyes! I used gel icing, but any kind of frosting would work. You just want something that will act as glue for the eyes.
Aren't these Halloween treats adorable?
It just takes a few minutes to whip up this cute Halloween snack that is a fun mix of spooky and silly.
👩🏻🍳Expert Tips
Tip 1: Make sure little ones remove the teeth before eating and watch them around the teeth since they could be a choking hazard.
Tip 2: If you don't have gel icing to stick on the candy eyes, you can also use frosting.
🤷🏻♀️Recipe FAQs
I think these donuts look best when made with a variety of donuts. A variety package of donuts does the trick since it comes with plain, chocolate, and powdered sugar donuts.
These will start to get stale after a day or two, so I recommend making them right before you plan to use them.
