One-Eyed Chocolate Dipped Licorice Monsters

Do your kids love making Halloween treats at home?

This has been one of our favorite things this year and we are so excited to partner up with Red Vines to share this great kid friendly Halloween recipe!

Our son Jonas just loves anything with chocolate. Of course it isn’t a spooky Halloween treat without incorporating eyeballs, these are always so fun for kids to put on!

This week we made One-Eyed Chocolate Dipped Licorice Monsters! An easy and fun Halloween treat that doesn’t have too many ingredients and can be quickly thrown together in a pinch.

We made ours with Red Vines, a family favorite treat! I have to say the chocolate and the Red Vines taste amazing together. It was hard for me not to eat the whole batch.

I love these because they are quick, easy, and look so cute! For a gift or school party they easily fit into a Halloween Ziploc bag or container and won’t take you very long to make.

Here’s What You’ll Need:

  • One Large Bag of Red Vines
  • 1-Bar of Baking Chocolate or Melting Chocolate (We used milk chocolate.)
  • Wax or Parchment Paper
  • Your favorite Halloween Sprinkles & Eyeballs *Find in the baking or Halloween section

Here’s What to do:

Step 1: Melt your baking chocolate in a shallow bowl.

Step 2: Swirl a Red Vine in the melted baking chocolate. (Red Vines are flexible and I thought they were easier to coat in chocolate than pretzel sticks since you don’t really have to spoon the chocolate over.)

Step 3: Place your eyeball where you want it at the top of your Red Vine.

Step 4: Sprinkle with large Halloween sprinkles (the sugar sprinkles won’t show on milk chocolate).

Step 5: Lay your Red Vines in a parchment lined baking sheet, eyeball side up.

Step 6: Refrigerate for 30 minutes or until chocolate has hardened.

You can serve them easily on a cute Halloween plate, in a bucket, jar, or cup.

If you are cooking with kids let them get in on the fun of dipping chocolate and putting on the eyeballs/sprinkles.

        I am throwing a Halloween Party for my kids and their friends this year for Halloween. I am also taking them around my neighborhood with my sister and her kids,

        I’m not really into Halloween, although my kids enjoy it. We are decorating the yard with some spooky (and some cute) Halloween items this year…and with some orange lights, too!

        We are taking the kids to a Trick or Treat trail in town, Truck or Treat at our church, and then Treat or Treating around my mom’s neighborhood. They love dressing up!

        My teenage daughter and I will be making hot chocolate and sitting outside to hand out candy. We live right by the town cemetery so it is always fun this time of year. Fun and spooky.

          Hi Christy! That’s so awesome that you have such a fun event in your community. I sure wish our downtown did something like that. Thanks for stopping by. 🙂

        We go to the Harvest Festival every year at a local church in town. Its a huge event, with blow ups, games, food, and lots more. Its a tradition.

          That’s so fun Yvonne. I love family traditions. We always go to grandma’s house with our kids for Halloween each year after trick or treating. They like to help their grandma hand out treats for the rest of the evening. I hope you have a wonderful Halloween. 🙂

          Hi Jill! You’re one awesome mom. I haven’t gotten around to decorating the house yet this year. It is still on my to-do list, but seems like a monumental task with a toddler. 😉 Thanks for stopping by!

        On the 21st of October, I am flying to Germany where my grandchildren currently live. I have made a Cheetah costume for my granddaughter and I am taking it with me. We will be trick or treating at the American Base in Germany. I can’t wait!

          Hi Catherine! A Cheetah costume sounds so cute, my toddler would love that. How fun to be trick or treating in Germany. I hope you all have a wonderful time. 🙂

        Both of my daughters are in college therefore too old to do Halloween. Well not that they are too old but they may not even be home for Halloween.
        I will have treats for the children in the community that stop by.

        We have so many trunk or treats and hayrides and bonfires on our calendar, I don’t even know how we will make it to half of them. On top of it, we are supposed to go pumpkin picking at the orchard.

          How fun! I love carving pumpkins with my kids. They usually end up getting bored and I finish up the carving with my hubby. 😉 Thanks for stopping by Julie!
