1. Ditch the Candy for Magic Morsels
This one is the quickest win for everyone. In your centerpieces, when you’re handing out candy to the neighborhood or when you’re bringing candy bowls to the office — just switch out the candy for Magic Morsels or Fairytale Sprites.
They’re the perfect size for a quick snack and a more exclusive treat than the same candy you can find at a gas station. Trust us, people will invite you to every Halloween party after you bring a bowl full of brownies.
2. Marshmallow Ghost Brownies
If you’re feeling crafty, this is a great, easy Halloween treat to make with young Halloween enthusiasts! Simple, fast, and super yummy.
All it takes is a few Magic Morsels, some regular size marshmallows, white chocolate, and black icing.
Just cover any Magic Morsel with white chocolate, stick the marshmallow on top so it’s standing tall, add eyes and a mouth with the black icing. Voila! You have a simple, delicious, seriously festive Halloween party treat!

3. Chocolate Spider Web
This one is for those of you who love to hang out at home with a small group of your favorite people. Maybe you have a Halloween-themed dinner or maybe it’s just a movie night and you need an easy Halloween treat for dessert.
All you need to impress those around you is get a plate, draw a spooky spider web using black icing, then place your favorite Fairytale Brownies treat right in the middle. People will think you starred on an episode of Top Chef and we definitely won’t tell them otherwise.
4. Bite-Size Brownie Spiders
This Halloween treat is a bit more involved than the others, but way cool and worth it in the end! It’s still a fairly simple DIY project that doesn’t require any artistic talent. Just some basic craft supplies.
Here’s what you’ll need:
- Bite-size Magic Morsels (get a variety or buy in bulk)
- Black pipe cleaners
- Googly eyes
- Tiny black pom-poms
- Double-sided tape and regular tape
- Glue

Step 1: Create the Spider’s Legs
Take 3 pipe cleaners, spread them like a star then tape them to the back of the Magic Morsel. Bend the pipe cleaners into a zig-zag to create “knees.”
Step 2: Create the Spider’s Eyes
Glue a googly eye to a pom-pom to create an eye. You will need two for each spider!
Then cut a piece of double-sided tape, place it on top of the Magic Morsel, then attach two eyeballs onto the tape.
And that’s it! Just like that, you have an easy Halloween treat to add to the party snack table, at place settings, in goodie bags, or even in your mouth.
5. Magical Mystifying Masks
This next one isn’t a treat, but masks are always a fun trick!
These frightfully adorable Halloween masks are a fun and engaging arts and crafts activity to do with your kids or at a party. Even smaller children can join the fun! Just make sure an adult handles the scissors.
There are plenty of felt mask templates online, so take a look around and pick out some options for your guests. Here are some mask templates to get you started!
Feeling extra creative?
Ditch the templates and encourage everyone to come up with their own design! You can even make it into a competition for the scariest Halloween mask — with a prize of brownies, of course.
Supplies:
- Mask templates
- Felt in various colors
- Straight pins
- Glue
- Scissors
- Elastic string
Step 1: Prepare your template
Print out your favorite mask template and pin it to the felt. Carefully cut out all the necessary pieces. Once you have everything, remove the pins.
Step 2: Glue pieces together
Apply a thin layer of glue to the smaller mask pieces. Firmly press them into place on the base of the mask. If you mess up, don’t worry! You’ll have a few seconds to move things around before the glue dries.
Step 3: Add the headband
Cut two vertical slits on each side of the mask. Cut a long string of elastic, thread it through the slit, and tie a firm knot.
6. Creepy Crawly Cookies
Don’t fear these spiders! Creepy Crawly Cookies using Fairytale Cookies are easy to make and tasty to eat.
These scrumptious little spiders look adorable at parties and get-togethers. They’re so simple, too — you can decorate dozens of these easy Halloween treats in just a few minutes.
Plus, you can mix up the candy topping to offer a variety everyone enjoys!
Supplies:
- Fairytale Cookies – any flavor
- Black and/or brown frosting
- Round decorator tip
- Black licorice laces
- Candy googly eyes
- Large black gumballs
- Peanut butter cups
Step 1: Add the spider’s body
Apply a blob of black or brown frosting to the center of the cookie to act as a “glue.” Firmly place a gumball or peanut butter cup on top of the frosting.
Step 2: Add the spider’s eyes
Add two small blobs of frosting to the body, then attach the candy googly eyes.
Step 3: Add the spider’s legs
For the legs, attach the licorice to the frosting ring or draw thin lines of frosting.
