Easy No Bake Halloween Nutter Butter Bat Cookies
These Easy No Bake Halloween Nutter Butter Bat cookies are just the cutest. Decorating cookies for Halloween is a tradition in our house. These cookies are simple to make and I do have to say would not be included as a Pinterest failed post. You will be able to feed your kids and their classmates with these cookies (granted no allergies). The bonus, will help build memories together that will last a lifetime. Or, at least fun memories that you’ll cherish forever.
But first, check your pantry for candy melts. You may already have some of these ingredients on hand. If you have candy melts it will help make this recipe run a little bit smoother. If you don’t, however, no worries…you can also use melted chocolate chips with a little bit of vegetable shortening, which helps the chocolate set and hardens. The later always works well in a pinch.

Here are the supplies you will need to get started:
Miniature Reeses Peanut Butter Cups
White Decorating Gel
Parchment Paper
Now let’s get started. Your first step is to prep your bat face. Unwrap the Reese’s Cups. Using the decorating gel, place a dot on the back of the candy eyes.
Attach two candy eyes to your bat’s face and set aside until later. I would get all your candy face completed for each bat cookie you will be creating. It will just be easier in the end. Start an assembly line.
Melt the brown candy melts according to package instructions. Prepare your area by placing a sheet of parchment paper on your counter. Parchment paper is vital as it makes sure the cookies won’t stick! Dip the cookies into the brown candy melts and evenly coat.
Lay the covered Nutter Butter cookie on the parchment paper.
Working quickly, place the Reese’s Cup on the middle of the cookie before the candy hardens.
Add a smile using the decorating gel.
Allow the cookies to completely dry and harden. When you peel them off of the wax paper, there may be some extra chocolate that you can actually just pull off to clean up the look of the cookie.
And that’s it! Now you’re ready to enjoy a whole arsenal of Halloween Bat Cookies! Make as many as you wish. These will be great for a school party (granted no allergies) or a home Halloween party.
