Ingredients
- 20 fudge-striped cookies (or any round chocolate cookies)
- 20 mini peanut butter cups or Rolos
- 1/4 cup chocolate frosting or melted chocolate
- 1/4 cup green frosting or melted green candy melts
- Halloween sprinkles, mini M&Ms, or candy eyes
- Optional: 20 pretzel sticks or licorice pieces for stirring sticks
Instructions
- Turn fudge-striped cookies upside down so the solid chocolate side faces up.
- Use chocolate frosting or melted chocolate to attach a mini peanut butter cup slightly off-center on each cookie.
- Spoon or pipe green frosting on top of each peanut butter cup to resemble bubbling potion.
- Decorate the green potion with Halloween sprinkles, mini M&Ms, or candy eyes.
- Insert a pretzel stick or licorice piece into each cauldron for a “stirring stick,” if using.
- Let cookies set at room temperature or refrigerate for 10 minutes to firm up.
Notes
- Use tinted white frosting or green candy melts if you don’t have green frosting.
- Swap peanut butter cups for mini marshmallows or chocolate kisses for nut-free options.
- Decorate with crushed candy canes, Pop Rocks, or pipe colored frosting for a magical twist.
- Store in a single layer to prevent decorations from smudging.
