Ghost Pudding Cups: A Fun and Easy Halloween Treat for Kids
Ghost pudding cups are one of my favorite treats to make during Halloween! This spooky season is perfect for creative costumes, fun crafts, and turning everyday foods into Halloween-inspired delights. Plus, I get to transform the cobwebs in my house into seasonal decorations—talk about multitasking!
Every year, I try to make this time even more special for my kids. I’m not talking about spending a fortune on elaborate decorations, but finding simple and fun ways to create lasting memories. After all, kids are only little once, and I want them to remember the fun treats and activities mom put together for them.
This afternoon, my kids and I decided to whip up a fun Halloween-themed treat: ghost pudding cups! With just a few easy ingredients, we created a deliciously spooky dessert that had everyone grinning.
I grabbed some vanilla pudding cups (they’re so convenient!) from the store, along with a bag of marshmallows and some whipped topping. These ingredients are all you need to create adorable ghost pudding cups!
I’m not the most creative person, but even a mom like me can pull off this simple Halloween treat. We love adding fun mix-ins to our pudding cups, and since ghosts are traditionally white, we chose whipped topping and marshmallows for the perfect “ghostly” touch.
If you’ve never tried a pudding cup with whipped topping, you’re missing out! It’s one of our favorite combos—sometimes we add graham crackers too. You have to give it a try!
Step-by-Step: Easy Ghost Pudding Cups for Halloween
- Start with vanilla pudding cups (they’re perfect for creating your ghostly masterpiece).
- Use a marker to draw a simple ghost face on the side of each pudding cup. This part is fun for the kids!
- Peel back the lid and add a dollop of whipped topping to the top of each pudding cup.
- Let your kids add marshmallows on top to create the ghost’s “fluffy” appearance.
It’s that simple! No need to be a pro artist—just a few basic ingredients and a little creativity, and you’ve got a Halloween treat your kids will love.
