Halloween Bat Treats Ingredients

  • Reese’s Miniature Cups®: Miniature size is preferred, but regular-sized work too.
  • Oreo Thins®: Use THIN Oreos for their size; regular ones may be heavy. Separate carefully with a table knife. Feel like changing things up? Pick a different Oreo flavor to try!
  • White Chocolate Chips: Look for a quality brand for the best melt and flavor.
  • Edible Candy Eyes: Found in baking aisles or specialty stores. Choose your desired size. For tiny ones like in our photos, consider online shopping. Standard eye size fit well too on these Halloween Bat Treats!

Tips For Melting White Chocolate

  • Avoid Water: Make sure utensils and bowls are dry—water can make the chocolate grainy.
  • Manage Thickness: If the white chocolate is too thick, add a drop of oil to thin. Don’t worry this won’t change the flavor.
  • Interval Heating: To avoid burning the chocolate, melt it in short bursts. Microwave in 20-30 second intervals, stirring in between.

How To Make Halloween Bat Treats

  1. Prepare Reese’s Cups: Unwrap and chill the Reese’s Cups. Stick the Reese’s in the fridge for a few minutes to make easier to handle.
  2. Prepare Bat Wings: Break Oreo Thins in half to get four pieces per cookie. Discard the filling. Use a butter knife if the cookies break unevenly.
  3. Melt White Chocolate: Melt the white chocolate chips in 25-second intervals, stirring each time. move to a plastic bag and cut a tiny corner for piping.
  4. Assemble Bats: Pipe a dot of white chocolate on the sides of each Reese’s Cup and attach Oreo halves as wings. Pipe another dot below the wings and add the candy eyes. Press gently to secure wings and eyes.
