    Halloween Frankenstein Cakes

    My kids (especially Carrigan) have inherited my sweet tooth! When you combine that with my love for doing special things around the holidays, we end up making a lot of little treats together!

    These Halloween Frankenstein cakes are fun to make because you can choose your favorite flavor of snack cakes. So everyone can get Frankenstein Halloween treats they love!

    Every Frankenstein will be unique too because everyone can decorate theirs in a different way. Different eye placement, different mouths, and different amounts of hair!

    How to Make Halloween Frankenstein Cakes

    Kids can help with a lot of the steps to make their own Frankenstein Halloween cake. But you’ll definitely want to help with melting the candy melts and dipping the snack cakes!

    1. Heat 2 cups of green candy melts at a time in a microwave safe bowl for 3 to 4 minutes, stirring every 30 seconds until melted.
    2. Dunk the bottom 3/4″ of your snack cakes into the melted chocolate, holding the top let any excess chocolate drop off, and place onto a piece of parchment paper.
    3. Stick two candy eyes onto the front top and let your chocolate covered cakes cool and harden.
    4. Crush your Oreos.
    5. In a separate microwave-safe bowl, heat 1 cup of your light cocoa candy melts on 50% power, stirring every 30 seconds until melted.
    6. Dip the top 1/4″ of your Twinkies into the chocolate and sprinkle with crushed Oreos.
    7. Pour the remaining melted light cocoa candy melts into a decorating bag and draw a zig zag smile and a stitch above one eye.
    8. Let cool and harden completely.
    9. Enjoy!

    Celebrate with these fun Frankenstein Halloween cakes with your family!
