Looking for small Halloween treats to bring to a party? These treats are compact and perfect as small party treats.

The Mud Cups imitated graveyard grounds with gummy worms crawling out of the crushed Oreo cookie “dirt.” Underneath the first layer was a tasty chocolate pudding that paired well with the dry, crushed cookie. These were put in plastic cups with lids for easy travel, rather than the chocolate cookie cups in the recipe. 

The Oreo Eyes and Reese’s/Oreo Bats were both sweet and compact treats that were easy to make. There was no extra preparation needed and enjoyable to put together. Both of these recipes made it easy to put in a container without a mess. 

The Oreo Eyes were made of Oreo Cookies, Lifesavers, and red icing. To put together, split one cookie and use the cream in the middle to stick a Lifesaver candy into. Top with red icing to look like red veins.

To make the Reese’s/Oreo Bats, cut one Oreo cookie in half for the wings, and place each half on either side of a Reese’s Peanut Butter Cup with icing. Use the icing to create two eyes and a mouth in the center of the treat.
