Witches’ Hats are a fun and festive Halloween treat featuring fudge stripe cookies topped with a milk chocolate candy kiss and decorated with honey and gel to look like whimsical witch hats. These no-bake delights are quick to assemble, making them perfect for holiday parties or themed gatherings.

Ingredients

Scale

Base

  • 2 (16 ounce) packages fudge stripe cookies

Adhesive

  • ¼ cup honey, or as needed

Topping

  • 1 (9 ounce) bag milk chocolate candy kisses, unwrapped
  • 1 (4.5 ounce) tube decorating gel

Instructions

  1. Prepare adhesive: Warm the honey slightly if it is too thick, making it easier to use as an edible glue.
  2. Attach candy kisses: Dab a small amount of honey onto the flat side of a fudge stripe cookie, then gently press a milk chocolate candy kiss onto it to form the point of the hat.
  3. Allow set up: Place the assembled witches’ hats on a tray or plate, letting the honey adhesive slightly set so the candy kiss stays securely attached.
  4. Decorate hats: Using the decorating gel, carefully draw hat bands or other Halloween-themed designs around the base of each candy kiss to add character and charm.
  5. Serve and enjoy: Once decorated and set, serve your witches’ hats immediately or store them in an airtight container until ready to enjoy.

Notes

  • If honey is too sticky, warming it a few seconds in the microwave can help with easier application.
  • Decorating gel colors can be mixed for more personalized designs.
  • Store finished hats at room temperature in an airtight container to keep cookies crisp.
  • These treats do not require baking, making them quick and simple for last-minute parties.
  • Substitute mint or dark chocolate candy kisses for variety.
