Boo Cups

I was scrolling through some old pictures yesterday and I came across the pictures of these “Boo Cups”.  Any other  bloggers relate??  You take pictures of a recipe or craft and then just never get to posting it??  Hopefully I’m not the only one because I found a few other un-posted recipe pictures as well!  So I thought about not posting this again, because I’d like to think my food photography has improved a little since I started blogging 2 years ago.   But I don’t think I will be making these this year until Halloween and then it will be too late to post them and they will probably just sit in my pictures another year and be forgotten about again.  You will even notice these pictures are from my old kitchen and the lighting was never good there.  So probably too much information but I hope you will excuse my old pictures from 2016!!  Okay, so with that said these have been a family favorite for years, like since my 12-year-old was a baby, and they still get made every year.  These are something the kids look forward to and something that they also love to help with.  

So here is what you need: 

In a gallon ziplock bag crush up your Oreos.  I like to use the flat side of my meat tenderizer.  Then set those aside. 

In a large bowl add in your milk and then pudding mixes.  Beat with a wire whisk for about 2 minutes or until well blended.  

Then stir in half of your whipped topping.  

When that is mixed add in half of your crushed Oreos and stir. 

Set out 15 small clear plastic cups on a cookie sheet.  Then with your remaining crushed Oreos spoon about a heaping tablespoon into the bottom of each of the cups.  

Then spoon the pudding mixture evenly into the cups right on top of the crushed cookies. 

Top evenly with the remaining crushed Oreos. 

Next take the other half of your whipped topping and either spoon it on top to make your ghosts, or put it in a plastic bag, cut the corner off, and pipe on the ghosts.  That is what I do and it works so well. 

Once you have all your ghosts piped on you are ready to add the mini chocolate chip eyes.  

This is where the kids love to help.  They often turn out crazy and that is okay.  We always seem to end up with a Charlie Brown ghost too!   

Very simple and always a good Halloween day-time activity!  

And did I mention they taste so yummy too and are a perfect Halloween dessert!  Not too late to add them to your line up for next week!
