Ingredients Needed for Cheesecake Halloween Cups

1. Philadelphia No Bake Cheesecake Filling – This is the special ingredient that makes these cheesecake cups so easy to make! I always buy it at Walmart, but some grocery stores carry it as well.
2. 2-oz mini dessert cups – I purchased the set with (mini) spoons included. They also have a set with cups + spoons + lids if you need to transport your cheesecake cups.
3. Food dye
4. Various toppings (sprinkles, Oreos, candy corn, candy eyes)

If you use 2-oz cups, a tub of filling will make 12 individual servings.

Below, I’ll share exactly which toppings I purchased for each type of cheesecake cup I made.

How To Make Halloween Cheesecake Cups

Divide the cheesecake filling and dye it to your preferences. I made orange, black, green, and purple cheesecake with this food dye gel.

Now it’s time to get creative! Here’s how I decorated each variation.

Orange Halloween Cheesecake Cups

For these, I used:

• Stir Halloween Sprinkle Mix – I purchased this at Joann Fabrics and used sprinkle mixes with orange in the color scheme. Any fun sprinkles will do!
• Brach’s Autumn Mix – I used a pumpkin from this mix.

Green Halloween Cheesecake Cups

For these, I used:

• Stir Halloween Sprinkle Mix – The mini eyeballs also came in the Halloween tackle box. I think it would also be fun to use these large eyes and make them one-eyed monsters!

Purple Halloween Cheesecake Cups

For these, I used:

• Halloween Oreos – These are great because they come with five different designs. The designs are very clear on the cookies, which is a big plus.
• Purple sprinkles – I love how vibrant these are!
• Plastic spiders – You can never go wrong with creepy plastic spiders. Just make sure people know they aren’t edible!

Black Halloween Cheesecake Cups

For these, I used:

• Oreos – I crushed the cookies to make the dirt. You can use regular Oreos or Halloween Oreos (it doesn’t matter since you won’t use the filling).
• Zombie hands – Just like the plastic spiders, make sure people know these aren’t edible!

I hope you have fun with these. Happy Halloween! 🎃
