Ingredients

This Halloween dessert board uses mostly chocolate with a mix of sour, salty, and marshmallow treats. Most of these can be found at Target, Party City, HomeGoods, or grocery stores.

  • Oreos (plain and decorated as mummies)
  • Chocolate-covered mini donuts
  • Green Sixlets (Party City)
  • Nerds candy corn (green and purple only)
  • Hershey’s Dark Chocolate Kisses (purple foil)
  • Entenmann’s Little Bites Fudge Brownie Mini Muffins
  • Pillsbury Funfetti Green Frosting + purple sprinkles
  • Peeps Halloween Marshmallow Monsters
  • Black licorice
  • Chocolate Skulls (HomeGoods)
  • Dark chocolate covered pretzels

Step-by-Step Instructions

  1. Choose a board – Use a large 18″ round board if serving a crowd, or a smaller 12″ board for intimate gatherings. The goal is to keep the board looking full.
  2. Add shapes first – Use small bowls or pumpkin-shaped cookie cutters to hold candies like Sixlets and Nerds. This adds structure and fun shapes.
  3. Layer larger snacks – Place Oreos, donuts, and pretzels next. Spread them across the board to anchor the layout.
  4. Decorate for theme – Frost brownie bites with green Funfetti icing and purple sprinkles. Make Oreo Mummies with cookie icing and candy eyes for spooky accents.
  5. Create movement – Arrange frosted brownies in a wave from edge to center. Repeat some snacks (Oreos, pretzels) in different areas to create visual flow.
  6. Finish with Halloween treats – Add Peeps Monsters and chocolate skulls as fun finishing touches.

Pro Tips

  • Use themed cookie cutters or bowls for extra Halloween shapes.
  • Assemble just before serving to keep everything fresh.
  • Swap in gluten-free or vegan treats if needed.
