2 Spooky-Sweet Treats for Halloween
Halloween isn’t just about costumes and candy, it’s also the perfect excuse to bake something deliciously spooky!
Whether you’re hosting a party or cozying up for a night in, these two easy desserts bring a fun (and tasty) twist to Halloween.
Chocolate Spiderweb Donuts
Fluffy, rich, and topped with a chocolate web that’s almost too pretty to eat.
Ingredients (makes 6 large donuts - about 9 cm each)
140 g flour
80 g sugar
Pinch of salt
1 egg
60 g plain yogurt
½ tsp vanilla extract
For the topping:
60 g white chocolate
Instructions:
- Preheat oven to 180°C (350°F) and grease a donut pan with butter.
- In one bowl, mix flour, cocoa, sugar, baking powder, and salt.
- In another, whisk together the egg, milk, yogurt, melted butter, and vanilla.
- Combine wet and dry mixtures gently until smooth. Fill donut molds about ¾ full.
- Bake for 10 minutes, cool for 2 minutes, then remove and let cool completely.
- Melt dark chocolate in the microwave (5–10 second bursts, stirring in between).
- Melt white chocolate separately. Transfer to a piping bag or small sandwich bag.
- Dip donuts into melted dark chocolate. Pipe 3 concentric white circles on top.
- Use a toothpick to drag lines from the center outward — creating a web pattern.
- Let the chocolate set before serving.
Tip: Imperfect webs look even spookier!
Chocolate “Dirt Cups”
A classic Halloween treat with a creamy chocolate base and a fun “worms in dirt” twist. Made the Portuguese way.

Gummy worms

- Before serving, crush Chocapic cereal to resemble “dirt.”
