Edible Black Marker
Instructions
Line the counter with parchment paper and cover with a cooling rack.
Lay out ten mini donuts on the cooling rack.
Melt the candy melts needed for one design by placing them in a small bowl, one bowl for each color, and microwave at half power for 1 minute. Stir thoroughly and microwave for an additional 30 seconds if needed.
Candy Corn Design
Add the melted orange candy melts to a piping bag and snip off the end of the bag. Pipe a wide orange stripe right across the middle of the donuts.
Add the melted yellow candy melts to a piping bag and pipe a stripe across the bottom of the donuts, just slightly overlapping the still-wet orange stripe.
Add the melted white candy melts to a piping bag and pipe a stripe across the top of the donuts, slightly overlapping the still-wet orange stripe.
Carefully lift the donuts and transfer them to the other side of the cooling rack so they don’t end up with cooled drips of candy melts hanging off them. Let them set completely before serving.
Pumpkin Design
Carefully dip the top of the donuts one by one in the melted orange candy melts. Shake off excess before placing top up on the cooling rack. While the candy melts are still wet, press a green Mike and Ike candy into the center of the donut to act as the stem.
Let them set completely before serving.
Frankenstein Design
Carefully dip the top of the donuts in the melted green candy melts. Shake off the excess before placing top up on the cooling rack. While the green candy melts are still wet, place two small eyeball sprinkles just above the center of the donut.
Once the green has set up, add the melted black candy melts to a piping bag and pipe hair along the top third of the donut, just above the eyeballs.
Once the black has set up, use an edible black marker to draw a couple stitches on Frankenstein’s face.
