Skeleton Graves

Pin It

I love to go wandering around craft stores and look at all the cool stuff that they have. Earlier this month I went to JoAnn’s Fabric store (they have a lot more than just fabric) and wandered around all of their Halloween stuff when I came across different Wilton chocolate molds they had. They had chocolate pop molds, molds for chocolate covers pretzel molds, and regular candy molds. I saw a chocolate mold for skeleton pieces and it suggested that you make a brownie or cake skeleton graveyard and I just had to try it. This was my second attempted at using chocolate molds and I still think it’s a easy and fun thing to do.


Recipe Review:

This is not really a recipe just a fun thing to do with food :)

What you need:

Skeleton Piece Wilton Chocolate Mold
Melting Chocolate (chocolate chips)
Brownie or Cake

Directions:

Make your chocolate skeleton pieces using the mold. Then lay the piece out on a piece of brownie or cake to make a grave.

Serving Suggestions:

Would be ideal for food fun at an October sleepover or served at a Halloween party.

Chocolate and Pretzel Skeleton Fingers



What you need:

Melting Chocolate or chocolate chip
Pretzel Sticks/Rods
Skeleton Finger Mold (I used Wilton’s)

Directions:

Melt the chocolate. You can do this 2 different ways: 1) pour the chocolate in a double boiler and stir over a low heat until melted or 2) pour chocolate in microwave safe dish and melt in 15-30 second intervals until melted (if microwaving chocolate it is best to use a plastic dish because it does not get as hot as ceramic and does not burn the chocolate as quickly). Next, pour melted chocolate into molds. Put a pretzel in the chocolate and continue filling as needed. Last, let the chocolate cool and harder. You can put it in the refrigerator to cool it faster.
