Ingredients

  • 14.3 oz vanilla sandwich cookies crushed
  • 8 oz cream cheese softened
  • Green and purple food coloring
  • 12 oz black candy melts
  • 1 cup light green candy melts
  • Green pearl sprinkles
  • Candy eyes and halloween sprinkles optional

Instructions

  • Prep: Start by crushing the cookie sandwiches into a fine crumb. Use a ziplocked bag and rolling pin for this step, or a food processor if you have one. Also line a baking sheet with parchment paper and set it aside.
  • Batter: Combine the cookie crumbs and cream cheese in a large bowl. Use an electric hand mixer to combine them into a smooth mixture. Divide the filling into 2 bowls. Use the food coloring to dye one bowl green and one purple.
  • Take a teaspoon of each color and roll into a ball gently swirling the colors. Take about ½ teaspoon of the filling and roll into a ball and flatten. Place this on top of the ball you already made to create the top of the cauldron. Place on a parchment lined tray.
  • Freeze: Place the cauldrons in the freezer for 1 hour up to overnight.
  • Assemble: Melt the black candy melts either in a double boiler or in a microwave safe bowl in 30 second intervals until melted and smooth. Carefully dip each cauldron in the black chocolate and set on the parchment paper lined tray to set.
  • Melt the green candy melts the same way and place into a ziplocked bag and snip a small off the corner.
  • Pipe the green on the top of the cauldron and make it drip a bit off the edge. Immediately sprinkle on the green candy pearls to look like bubbles. Add candy eyes or other Halloween sprinkles if you like. Chocolate will set within an hour. Serve & enjoy!

Notes

Store leftovers in an airtight container in the refrigerator for up to 5 days.
