Easy Halloween Snacks Ghosts on a Boat

Ghosts on a Boat

All you need to make this easy Halloween snack is graham crackers, mini marshmallows, Hershey’s ready to eat pudding, and a tube of black icing.

Start with a full graham cracker and break it into four pieces. This is super hard sometimes because the cracker wants to crumble when pressure is applied.

I have found that if you use a sharp steak knife right at the crease, it will break evenly.

Scoop out about a tablespoon of Hershey’s Ready to Eat Pudding, and spread it onto the graham crackers.

Try different flavors or use your favorite brand of pudding to make this Halloween treat.

Draw faces on your marshmallows before adding them to the “boats”.

If your icing is thin enough you will not even have to squeeze the tube, just place it on the spots you want black dots, the marshmallow soaks it up like a sponge.

Finally, place the marshmallow ghosts onto the boats and your easy snack is ready to enjoy!

My kids would think these are so fun. What a cute Halloween treat idea. I think this would be a really fun treat to take in for my kids Halloween classroom party. And I had no idea they even made smore's pudding. I am going to have to find this for sure!

OMG, too cute!! Perfect blend of adorableness, ease of making, and yummy flavors and textures. (reminds me of a s'mores) Also love the size of the treats - just right for tiny hands, and relatively bite-sized (unlike, say, caramel apples which are an awesome concept but such a messy idea to implement). Love the snack you made!
