These easy Halloween donuts are perfect if you need a simple spooky dessert. Using storebought donuts and ingredients, decorate these bite sized treats to look like cats, eyeballs, ghosts and more! Each treat takes 3 steps or less.
I loved making these turkey donuts and Christmas donuts how much fun I had making them. They were so cute and easy and I wondered if I could think up some fun way to make a Halloween donut.
So.. I went a bit overboard and did 5.
Because I’m a crazy person and I can’t stop and I really, really love Halloween. Like, a lot.
The best part about these is each version is crazy easy – no-baking, no melting, nothing crazy.
Everything can be found in the baking or treat aisle of your local grocery store. Each shouldn’t take you more than 30 seconds to put together. These Halloween donuts would be so super cute for a Halloween get together or to bring into your kiddo’s school for a class party.
Enjoy while listening to our favorite Halloween songs for kids and drinking a cup of Halloween hot chocolate!
