You don’t even have to bake a cake donut holes dipped in colorful candy melts do the trick.

Ingredients
- 1 dozen donut holes plain or chocolate
- 1 cup orange candy melts
- 1 cup black candy melts
- 1 cup white candy melts
- Candy eyes and Halloween sprinkles
- 12 lollipop sticks
Instructions
- Chill your donut holes for about 15 minutes. Push a lollipop stick into each one about halfway.
- In separate bowls, melt your candy melts in the microwave in 30-second bursts, stirring until smooth.
- Dip each donut hole into the candy melt of your choice. Gently twirl it so it’s completely coated.
- While the coating is still wet, add candy eyes, sprinkles, or drizzle with another color.
- Stick the pops into a Styrofoam block or lay them flat on parchment paper. Chill for 15–20 minutes until the coating hardens.
Notes
Make ‘monster eyes’ with candy eyeballs, create mummies using white drizzle, or go chic with black-and-gold coating. Keep pops cool before dipping, add a teaspoon of coconut oil for extra shine, and let them dry completely before storing. Prep a day ahead if needed — they keep up to 4 days in an airtight container in the fridge.
