Chocolate Marshmallow Bats

Chocolate Marshmallow Bats – Fun Halloween Treats

These little bats might be meant to be spooky, but honestly—they’re just too cute! Once you see them, you’ll know exactly what we mean. Perfect for adding a playful (and slightly scary) touch to your Halloween table, they’re as fun to make as they are to eat.

I had way too much fun creating these Halloween bat treats, and the kids loved helping out too. The only “hard” part? Waiting for the chocolate to set before you can tuck in!

This recipe is simple, fun, and delicious—a Halloween activity the whole family will enjoy. Whether you’re hosting a party, planning a spooky movie night, or just want a seasonal activity with the kids, these bats are guaranteed to be a hit.

INGREDIENTS - Chocolate Marshmallow Bats

makes 12

• 100g of milk or dark chocolate ( we used dark )

• 12 camp-fire marshmallows ( not the giant ones )

• 1x pack of oreo biscuits

• 24x edible googly eyes ( optional. We had none and improvised with cut pieces of marshmallow and dots of melted chocolate for the pupils )

You'll also need toothpicks or small wooden skewers.

METHOD

Line a tray or plate or board with non-stick paper or silicon sheet.

Twist and split the Oreos in half and the either break or cut the halves into halves again - these are the bat wings. Go ahead and place these in pairs on your lined tray. You want the two ends touching one another. Space them out about 1 1/2 inches from one another.

Melt the chocolate on a very low heat - ensure to keep stirring so it doesn't stick or burn. If it goes clumpy just add a small dash of hot water and mix. Transfer to a small bowl.

Pierce the base of the marshmallows with the a toothpick or skewer and dip them one at a time into the melted chocolate until it's fully covered and lay it upon one of the sets of wings.

Add the eyes and repeat until all of your bats are made.

Allow the chocolate to fully set before removing the bats from the tray. Placing them into the fridge will speed up the process.

Serve and enjoy!

We used toothpicks and we pierced them into a large avocado placed inside a bowl to display them. We also stuck them into our Chocolate & Marshmallow Tart for decoration.
