34 Halloween Desserts Ideas

Halloween desserts are one of the best parts of the holiday.

Whether you’re hosting a party or need to bring something to your kid’s school, these ideas will help you make sure your halloween dessert ideas are the best.

1. Candy Corn Cupcakes

Cupcakes are the perfect treat for any occasion. They’re easy to make, easy to serve, and can be decorated in a million different ways.

But, the best part about cupcakes is that they’re completely customizable.

You can make any flavor cupcake with any flavor frosting and any decorations you like.

These Candy Corn Cupcakes are made with a simple vanilla cupcake base and are topped with a homemade buttercream frosting.

The frosting is colored to look like candy corn and is topped with a candy corn piece for decoration.

These cupcakes are so fun and festive and are perfect for your Halloween celebrations.

2. Mini Cinnamon Roll Spiders

These mini cinnamon roll spiders are so stinkin’ cute and easy to make, too! All you need are mini cinnamon rolls, candy eyes, and chocolate sprinkles.

That’s it. And if you’re feeling extra, you can even make your own mini cinnamon rolls. I have a recipe for those here.

I also used a simple vanilla glaze to decorate the tops of each cinnamon roll spider,

but you could also use store-bought cream cheese frosting if you’d like. These are so fun to make and kids will love to help decorate!

3. Spider Web Chocolate Tart

This tart is a showstopper and it’s so easy to make.

The filling is a simple chocolate ganache—just chocolate and cream!—and the crust is a chocolate cookie crust.

You can make your own or use store-bought.

The spider web is made with a simple royal icing, but if you’re short on time you can also use melted white chocolate.

Drizzle it over the tart in concentric circles and then drag a toothpick through the chocolate from the center outward to create the web.

4. Monster Eye Truffles

These Monster Eye Truffles are a fun and easy Halloween treat!

They’re made with a simple chocolate ganache that’s rolled into balls and then coated in a layer of colored white chocolate.

I like to use a mix of semi-sweet chocolate and bittersweet chocolate to make the ganache.

I find that the combination of the two chocolates gives the truffles the perfect amount of sweetness, but feel free to use all semi-sweet chocolate if you prefer.

The ganache is rolled into balls and then chilled in the refrigerator for about 15 minutes, or until they’re firm enough to handle.

Then, they’re dipped in a layer of colored white chocolate and decorated with a candy eye.

I used a mix of green, purple and orange candy melts to coat the truffles, but feel free to use any color you like. You could even use a mix of all the colors!

5. Halloween Chocolate Sugar Cookies

These Halloween Chocolate Sugar Cookies are soft and chewy cut-out cookies with crisp, defined edges.

They have a rich, deep chocolate flavor and are perfect for Halloween!

I’m a huge fan of sugar cookies and make them all the time. But I wanted to create a chocolate version that was just as good.

I’ve been working on this recipe for a while and I’m so excited to share it with you!

The recipe is easy to make and the cookies are perfect for decorating.

I used a simple chocolate icing and then added some Halloween sprinkles. You could also use royal icing if you prefer.

These cookies are perfect for a Halloween party and they’re a fun project to make with your kids!

6. Spooky Ghost Brownies

We love these brownies that are topped with a layer of white chocolate ganache to make the perfect canvas for our spooky little ghosts.

You could also make these with our homemade brownie recipe if you prefer to make them from scratch.

7. Pumpkin Cheesecake Truffle Mummies

These pumpkin cheesecake truffle mummies are a fun, no-bake dessert that’s perfect for Halloween!

The pumpkin cheesecake truffles are coated in a white chocolate coating and then drizzled with more white chocolate to create the mummy look.

I used a toothpick to create the mummy wrappings on the white chocolate coating,

but you can also use a piping bag with a small round tip to create the mummy look.

8. Halloween Chocolate Monster Cookies

These cookies are a little bit spooky and a whole lot of fun! If you’re not into the idea of decorating cookies, this is the Halloween dessert for you!

These Halloween monster cookies are made with a combination of almond flour and tapioca flour,

which makes them naturally gluten-free and gives them the perfect soft and chewy texture.

These cookies are full of chocolate flavor and studded with white chocolate chips, but the real star is the Halloween sprinkles!

I love that you can get creative and use any color you want to match your Halloween theme!

I used a combination of orange, black, and purple sprinkles and they turned out so cute!

9. Monster Mash Popcorn

This is a fun, simple, and festive Halloween dessert to whip up in a pinch. You can make your own popcorn or use a bag of your favorite popcorn.

Then, drizzle it with melted white chocolate and add in your favorite Halloween candies.

I used candy eyeballs, candy corn, and some fun fall-colored M&Ms. The key to making this popcorn look really cool is to not mix in the candies too much.

You want to see that the popcorn is a different color than the candies. This will give it a really cool “monster mash” look!

10. Pumpkin Spice Meringue Pumpkins

Once you’ve mastered the art of meringue, you can make these adorable pumpkins.
