Ingredients
Here is what you will need to make these easy Vegan Halloween treats.
Rice Cakes - These are the Rice cakes we useNutella or a Chocolate SpreadWhite ChocolateCandy Melts - I use Wilton Candy MeltsCandy Eyes - Wilton Candy EyesCoconut Oil- Optional
Rice Cakes- I have used brown rice cakes but feel free to use any other kind too. Candy Eyes- These are easily available online and in store. These in my opinion are absolute Halloween essential! There is so much you can do with it! Coconut Oil- I use extra virgin, cold pressed oil.This is not absolutely necessary but it helps from the chocolate solidifying too fast. HOT TIP - if your rice cakes have become soggy, microwave them for about 20 seconds and they are as good as new!
