Instructions
Ghost donuts
- Cover donut in powdered sugar.
- Add eyes by pushing 2 chocolate chips on the top. The pointy side of chocolate chips will face inwards.
One eyed monster donuts
- Coat donut in melted white chocolate.
- Toss some spooky sprinkles before the chocolate sets.
- Use a knife to cut only a quarter way near the top of the donut and push licorice ropes in here for the hair.
- Stick a large eyeball gummy candy in the center, using melted white chocolate.
Mini zombie donuts
- Coat mini donuts in powdered sugar.
- Add Twizzler or licorice rope hair on top of the donut by making a small cut there with a sharp knife.
- Stick a big gum ball in the center with melted white chocolate for the nose.
- Use a black edible marker to draw details on two m&m candies and stick them above the nose for eyes. Use melted white chocolate to secure in place.
- Stick a black sprinkle below the nose for mouth, using melted chocolate again.
Bat donuts
- Split open an Oreo and remove the cream. You will end up with two cookies.
- Break one cookie in half and place them on a sheet of wax paper. These will be the bat wings.
- Pour two big spoonfuls of melted chocolate near the bottom of the wings.
- Dip donut in chocolate ganache and cover in Oreo crumbs. Place this on top of the melted chocolate.
- Stick eyeball candies for eyes near the top, using melted chocolate.
- Stick two candy corns for the teeth or fangs near the middle, using melted chocolate. I recommend cutting the candy corns halfway with a knife or else they are just too big.
Cat donuts
- Coat donut in chocolate glaze and cover completely in Oreo crumbs.
- Push two candy corns near the top of the donut for the ears.
- Stick two eyeball candies with melted chocolate.
- Stick edible grass candy for whiskers with melted chocolate.
- Stick a orange m&m for nose in the middle with melted chocolate.
Mummy donuts
- Glaze donut in white glaze or melted white chocolate or white ganache.
- Fill hole in center too.
- Create "strips" by drizzling melted chocolate randomly all over the donut.
- Add eyes by sticking candy eyeballs near the top.
- Let the chocolate set and enjoy.
Spider donuts
- Drop two big spoonfuls of melted chocolate on sheet of wax paper and stick 3 chocolate pocky sticks on either sides.
- Pour additional melted chocolate in the center.
- Place a chocolate covered donut on top of the pocky sticks near the middle.
- Cover the whole donut in Oreo crumbs.
- Use melted chocolate to stick candy eyeballs.

Notes
- You can make fresh donuts for this project or use store-bought donuts. Just make sure they are plain and not glazed.
- Do not decorate warm donuts because that will cause the decorations to melt and make a sticky mess.
- If you can't find pocky sticks, you can use long pretzel rods. Dip them in melted semisweet chocolate for a similar look.
- Read additional tips and variations above.
- Leftovers can be stored in a covered box at room temperature for about 2 days. I don't recommend freezing or refrigerating because that can cause the decorations to bleed color.
