Scarecrow Graham Crackers are a fun food idea perfect for any Fall or Halloween party. They’re fun to make and super cute!
Last year, I decided to be politically correct and gave out individually-packaged string cheese instead of the usual sugar-laden candies to the tricksters who came knocking at our door on ghouls night. Well, my well-intentioned healthier treats were a complete fail and ended up as breaded mozzarella sticks.
This year, however, I am upping my trick or treat game. I will be stocking up on chocolates and I just might make a batch of Halloween party poppers or these Scarecrow graham crackers to give out. This Halloween, we’ll definitely be the coolest house on the block. 🙂
How to Make Scarecrow Graham Crackers
Materials
- Graham crackers
- Cocoa candy melts
- Candy eyes
- Shredded mini wheats
- Candy corn
- Parchment paper
- Decorating bag
Directions
In a small microwave-safe bowl, add 2 cups of cocoa candy melts and heat in the microwave on 50% power for about 3 to 4 minutes, stirring every 30 seconds until melted.
Fill the decorating bag with the melted chocolate and cut a tiny tip of the end.
Gently break the graham crackers in half width wise.
Apply a small amount of melted chocolate on the back of a piece of candy corn and place with pointed side down onto the bottom center of the graham cracker, pressing down to adhere.
Apply a small amount of melted chocolate on the back of 2 candy eyes and place one on each side above the candy corn nose.
Using the decorating bag, draw a wavy line below the candy corn to resemble a smile.
Draw hats onto a piece of parchment paper, the bottom being the length of a graham cracker and transfer to the freezer for 5 minutes to harden.
Apply a small amount of melted chocolate on the back bottom of the hats and carefully stick onto the top of the scarecrow grahams.
Carefully break apart the shredded wheat, apply a small amount of melted chocolate on the back and stick on the bottom sides of the hat to resemble hair.
