    These Pumpkin Spice Monster Cups are not only full of delicious fall flavors, but they are also easy to make and fun to decorate!

    'Tis the season for monster themed treats with bloody eyeballs and sugary neon frosting! They are so fun to make and even better to eat.

    I always have ambitious plans for my Halloween treats, yet when the time comes I never seem to have the time or energy left to make them.

    Pumpkin Spice Monster Cups

    These Pumpkin Spice Monster Cups require not a lot of time, and are easy enough to decorate that you can let the kids do it! Using Krusteaz Pumpkin Spice Cookie Mix and some black food coloring, this dough comes together in minutes. To save even more time, I scoop the dough out into a well greased mini muffin pan. This is a lot quicker then having to roll out each cookie dough ball and only bake 10-12 at a time. However, if you do have the time to do that, they would be super cute in cookie form too!

    Once baked and cooled, simply color your favorite frosting neon green and decorate with sprinkles, green jimmies, and some fun candy eyeballs. That's really all it takes to make these cute Halloween treats!

    These came together in about 35 minutes from start to finish. We had the entire neighborhood over to make and take their delicious monsters. We put on some spooky holiday tunes and had a great time!

    Krusteaz Pumpkin Spice Cookie mix has a wonderful blend of fall spice and pumpkin flavors. We stock up on it this time of year because it is so easy to make and makes wonderful edible gifts. We make a few batches and include the cookies (not in monster form of course) in our holiday cookie boxes for friends and family.

    So, if you are looking for a quick and easy Halloween theme treat, try these Pumpkin Spice Monster Cups. They will be loved by kids and adults alike.
