These require no baking, you don’t even have to melt chocolate! 3 ingredients and about 5 minutes will get you a platter of cute “Pinterest worthy” Halloween treats. And if you need to make these in the car while sitting in the grocery store parking lot, we won’t judge.

How to Make No Bake Halloween Mummy Snack Cakes

You will need:

Little Debbie Fancy Cakes

Candy Eyeballs  or Milk Chocolate Chips

White Icing 

My idea of an easy Halloween treat is one that I don’t have to use a microwave, stove or oven. No cookie cutters or rolling anything into bite size balls. I don’t even want to make pudding or jello. I want the definition of simple but also cute, fun and festive. Think open store bought package, do one step & done. If this is you keep reading! You won’t be disappointed with these ultra easy no bake Halloween mummy snack cakes.

These store bought cakes come together quickly to create adorable little DIY mummy faces in just a couple minutes. Step 1 is to open the packages on all your cakes. Step 2, add a dab of icing on the back of each eyeball. Next, stick the eyeballs on the cakes.

On this photo, I used chocolate chips just in case you don’t have candy eyeballs on hand! I think the eyeballs are a little cuter but the chocolate chips still make a convincing mummy.

The fancy cake makers have already perfectly drizzled vanilla icing over the cakes that look just like a mummy wrap (told you, no melting chocolate on my easy desserts). I mean really, can I hug this mysterious “Little Debbie?” I think I love her.

These no bake Halloween mummy snack cakes are sure to be a hit at school or your Halloween party. If you love super simple Halloween desserts, check out these Ding Dong Ghosts & upside down Hostess cupcake pumpkins.

Halloween is one of my favorite holidays. We have fun making not so spooky (no bake) witch cakes, decorating the yard with tacky inflatables that my kids LOVE, and going to trunk or treat festivals. However, some schools opt for a more generic Fall or Harvest Party instead of a Halloween focused one. Typically those parties specify no scary things like ghosts, goblins or monsters.

If your child’s school requires this or if you are just looking for a fun seasonal treat without a Halloween focus, these little treats are easy and festive.

Harvest Party No Bake Pumpkin Cupcakes

It is only September and the pumpkins are already everywhere. I have seen them at the grocery store, of course Hobby Lobby, and all over Pinterest. I even found 45 unique pumpkin spice products on Amazon. And I love the beauty of a plain pumpkin as part of your Fall decor. So why not bring a sweet little orange pumpkin for a class party?

My daughter and I whipped up a couple of these yesterday for an afternoon treat. If you can unwrap Hostess cupcakes, you can make these harvest party no bake pumpkin cupcakes. In fact, your 4 year old can do it! I love involving the kids in making seasonal treats.

What You Need

–Hostess Orange Cupcakes

– Green M&M’s (I just bought a regular bag of M&M’s and picked out the green ones)

–White Icing

When making kid treats, I love to find things that use just a couple of ingredients that are easy to find. It cuts down on costs and allows me to do more fun things for each holiday.

Making the Harvest Party No Bake Pumpkin Cupcakes

Get ready, you are going to be able to make these adorable pumpkin cakes and still have time to go take a bubble bath (or who am I kidding, you will have time to do the 3 loads of laundry waiting, homework and dance lessons – but Hey, at least you will have time!).

Unwrap the orange cupcakes and turn them upside down on your platter or in your clear cello bags (the icing swirl should be facing down).

Take a green M&M and put a dab of white icing on the bottom (skinny side so that it will stand up vertically). Using the icing like glue, stand the M&M upright in the center of your cupcake.

Bam! Now you have a set of harvest party no bake pumpkin cupcakes to take to school festivities. Would your kids like these pumpkin cakes?

I love Halloween! I always pin these amazing looking desserts year after year but never end up finding the time to create them. So this year, I decided to find some things that we could definitely find the time for this holiday season and add some fun to our usual schedule.

My kids don’t seem to care if the dessert is super elaborate or super simple. It is amazing but if it has sugar, they like it. One of my goals this year is to just “do.” To stop worrying if the activity or recipe is perfect, and just do it. My kids love it and I am having some fun too!

No Bake Halloween Snack Cake Ghost

You know when your kid’s school sends home a note that you need to send a Halloween treat to school for the party, tomorrow? Yes, you knew that Halloween was 10/31 but it just has the tendency to sneak up on you. And now you need something cute to send to school that wont’ keep you up until 3 am making…

These white chocolate ding dong ghosts will delight the classroom and help you keep your sanity. Reading this blog post will literally take you more time than whipping up a box or two of these no bake Halloween snack cake ghosts.

And if you want a less spooky option, try these No Bake Pumpkin cupcakes, perfect for a Harvest or Fall Party.

Supplies:

–Box of Hostess white chocolate ding dongs

–Betty Crocker Black Icing

Halloween NO bake ghost supplies

Creating the Ghosts

It doesn’t get any easier than this! Just draw on two dots for eyes and a bigger dot for a mouth. I think they turned out too cute for a preschool/elementary school party.

This no bake Halloween snack cake ghost fit the bill for the perfect class party treat. Easy. Tasty. Cute. Now you are done with your Halloween duties and can move on to more important things like Witch Wine (see how I just made your wine festive? Go have a glass, you earned it).

Would your kids love these ding dong ghosts?
