You’ll be so glad you served these at your Halloween party this year. It’s no secret I’m a fan of Halloween. Give me all things fall!

Halloween Donut Hole Pops
Trust me when I say this was one of the easiest and most enjoyable holiday treats I’ve made in a long time! They are so simple, yet blew everyone away with their look and taste! I have some pretty great Halloween recipes up my sleeve, but this one may take the cake… pop (corny, I know). I love making things from scratch, and you could make the donut holes or the cake for these pops if you wanted to. But it was nice to just get right to decorating and to have a lot less to clean up. I decided to make some of my favorite Halloween characters. Frankenstein is probably my favorite, he’s just so loveable! The mummy and eyeball were so simple and really wowed everyone. You could also get a few more characters by drawing a face on the pumpkin to turn them into Jack-O-Lanterns. There are so many possibilities with these fun Halloween Donut Hole Pops!

You can buy whatever colors you like, or stick to this recipe!Green Mike and Ikes: These are for the stems of the pumpkin. Small Eyeball Sprinkles: I used small eyes for my Frankenstein and mummy.Large Eyeball Sprinkles: The large sprinkles were the perfect size for the eyeball pop.Edible Black Marker: This is great to have on hand for lots of projects, so you’ll want to get one! I used it to make the small details on Frankenstein which totally bring him to life.Red Sanding Sugar: I used sanding sugar to get the veins of the eyeball to really pop (see what I did there?). It turned out great!Lollipop Sticks: You can find these cake pop sticks in the baking aisle, you may be able to find other colors than just white which would add to the theme!
How to Assemble Halloween Donut Hole Pops
Now the fun part! Assembling these donut hole cake pops was way too much fun. Using my imagination to create Halloween creatures makes the holiday feel as exciting as it did when I was a kid. Get creative with your designs, or if you want to make them the same way I did, here is how to do it.
Let’s Get Started!
Pumpkin Design
Eyeball Design
Mummy Design
Frankenstein Design
Get Creative: Are you a chocolate lover? Use Sixlets or Green M&M’s instead of Mike and Ikes to make the pumpkin stem.Make a New Creature: Get clever with the Halloween characters you love and create something new! Use the natural colors of your favorite candies and flavors to inspire your next cake pop design.Use Different Donut Flavors: Keep your guests guessing by using different donut hole flavors! There are so many fun flavors you can create.Use Melting Chocolates: You can easily use melting chocolates instead of melting candies. White chocolate, dark chocolate, and milk chocolate will still give you a range of fun colors to create with, and some may like the flavor better!
On the Counter: You can leave these out at room temperature in an airtight container or covered with plastic wrap. You can store them for up to 3 days, but I recommend eating them within 24 hours.
Note: Do not store your donut cake pops in the fridge or freezer. This will cause them to sweat and crack, and they could also develop mold.
