For the Frankenstein Toes:
- Green candy melts
- Braided pretzels
- Red gumdrops (Dots candy work great!)
For the Sp-cookie Ghosts:
- Oval-shaped cookies (I love coconut BelVitas, but Milanos or Nutter Butters are also delicious)

For the Werewolf Claws:
- Pretzel rods
- Slivered almonds

Step-by-Step Instructions
Step 1: Prep the Frankenstein Toes
Melt the green candy melts according to package directions. Cut the red gumdrops in half. Dip each pretzel into the green chocolate and attach a gumdrop half to the end as a “fingernail.”
Step 2: Create the Sp-cookie Ghosts
Melt the white chocolate according to package directions. Dip each cookie into the melted chocolate and attach two candy eyeballs.
Step 3: Make the Mummy Fingers
Melt the white chocolate. Dip the pretzels in the chocolate and then roll them in the shredded coconut. Transfer the remaining chocolate to a piping bag or zip-top bag with a small corner snipped off. Drizzle the chocolate over the coconut to resemble bandages.

Want to switch things up a bit? Try using different colored candy melts for the Frankenstein Toes, or add sprinkles to the Sp-cookie Ghosts. For a nutty twist, use peanut butter chips for the Werewolf Claws. Looking for more creative treat ideas? Our recipe archive is full of inspiration!
How should I store these Halloween treats?
These treats are best enjoyed fresh, but you can store them in an airtight container at room temperature for up to 2 days. For the Frankenstein Toes and Werewolf Claws, it’s a good idea to place a sheet of parchment paper between layers to prevent sticking.
Can I customize the decorations on these treats?
Absolutely! Get creative with the decorations! For the ghosts, try different colored candy eyes or even edible markers to draw faces. For the mummies, you could use white chocolate chips instead of shredded coconut. And for the werewolf claws, try adding a touch of red food coloring to the almond “claws” for a bloodier effect.
Can I make these treats ahead of time?
Yes, you can definitely make these treats ahead of time. Prepare them up to 2 days in advance and store them in airtight containers at room temperature. This will save you time on the day of your Halloween party.
Are these treats safe for kids?
These treats are generally kid-friendly, but always supervise young children while they’re enjoying them, especially with the small candy pieces and pretzel sticks.
