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!
