Ingredients

Rice Crispy treats balled up into the size of golf balls

Orange melting chocolate wafers

Orange sanding sugar

Green tic tacs or green twizzlers for stems

Candy eye balls

Gourmet writing pen

Lollipop sticks

*I get all my supplies at Cake Art in Tucker, but if you aren’t local in Atlanta, you can get melting chocolate and decorating supplies at Michael’s Craft store.

Directions

Ball up Rice Crispy Treats and insert lollipop sticks.  Melt the chocolate wafers in a double boiler or in a glass bowl on top of a small sauce pan with 1-2 inches of simmering water.  Stir until melted—about 5 minutes.  Let chocolate cool for 10 minutes before dipping balled up Rice Crispy treats.  Dip treats in chocolate and twist sticks to shake off excess chocolate.  Sprinkle sanding sugar on if desired, and place one tic tac at top of the treat for the pumpkin stem.  If you’re using candy eyeballs, stick them on before chocolate dries!  Once chocolate is hardened, use your Gourmet writing pen to draw on cute or scary pumpkin faces!

These are the perfect favors for a Halloween party– whether you’re entertaining kids or adults.  I made a bunch this weekend for a party– instead of drying the pops upright, I had the sticks facing up so they’d be easy to grab. I also used green twizzlers for the stems because I couldn’t find Green tic tacs!

Once the pops were dry, I put them into cellophane wrappers and tied an orange and black ribbon around each one.  Super cute.  Super delish.
