If you are in need of a last-minute festive treat idea, I’ve got you covered! These Halloween Snack Cups are simply darling and delicious! Your kids and grandkids will love these easy snacks! Plus, all three recipe ideas use the same vessel, a plastic cup! It doesn’t get any easier than that! Make it with me!
Halloween Snack Cup Ideas
I have three festive snack cups for you to try! You can make one, or two, or go crazy and do all three!
The recipes feature a drink, a snack, and a dessert so you have a variety to choose from.
All the recipes use the same vessel, a plastic cup. You’ll want to have a black Sharpie close by too! It doesn’t get easier than that!
Hot Tip: if you don’t want to use plastic cups, you could also use glass cups and a dry-erase marker for the eyes and finishing touches!

#1: Worms & Webs
We had to go classic with the famous dirt cup but give it a Halloween twist! I love how these worms & webs turned out!
Here’s what you’ll need:
- plastic cup
- chocolate pudding
- Oreo cookies
- gummy worms
- marshmallows
Here’s how to make it:
- Crush your Oreos down in a plastic baggie.
- Layer the pudding and Oreos in the plastic cup.
- Top with gummy worms.
- For the webs: microwave 2 large marshmallows for 15 seconds. Let them cool a bit, then use your fingers to grab the sticky marshmallows and stretch them across the rim of the glass. The more stringy webs, the better!
#2: Ghost Glass
This idea is so simple and fun! The kids will love turning their plain old chocolate milk into a fun, ghost scene! It’s easy too! I also added a fun ghost stir stick as an added touch!
Here’s what you’ll need:
- plastic cup
- black Sharpie
- vanilla frosting
- chocolate milk
For the ghost stir stick
- pocky stick
- large marshmallow
- edible eyes
- mini chocolate chips
Here’s how to make it:
- Get a heaping scoop of frosting on a spoon and press it against the insides of your plastic cup. Repeat 3 times around the glass.
- Using the Sharpie, draw on eyes and a mouth on the outside of the glass on each ghost.
- Fill the glass with chocolate milk and enjoy!
- If you want to make the ghost stir stick: cut a marshmallow in half using scissors. Stick the eyes and the chocolate chip mouth onto the sticky side of the marshmallow. Stick the pocky stick into the marshmallow and add it to the drink.
#3: Franken-Fruit Cup
This idea is the simplest of the three but it’s just as cute and fun! Halloween tends to get very candy-heavy, so if you’re looking for a fun way to add some fruit to the day, give this a try!
