Healthy Halloween Treats: Chocolate Scream Mousse & Apple Monster Mouths
Looking for fun and healthier Halloween treats? These spooky snacks are perfect for parties, kids’ activities, or festive fall gatherings. Try these two creative recipes: a rich Chocolate Scream Mousse made with Chocolate Life Shake™, and playful Apple Monster Mouths that are as fun to make as they are to eat.
Chocolate Scream Mousse
This creamy chocolate mousse is a delicious and festive dessert that combines rich cocoa flavor with the nutrition of Chocolate Life Shake™.
Ingredients
- 2 scoops Chocolate Life Shake™
- ½ avocado
- ½ cup milk of choice
- ½ tsp. cinnamon
- 1 Tbsp. cocoa powder
- ½ tsp. vanilla extract
- 4 mint leaves (for garnish)
- Optional: 1 Tbsp. coconut sugar (or sweetener of choice)
Directions
Blend all ingredients in a food processor until smooth and creamy.
Top with granola or chopped nuts if desired, and enjoy.
Serving Idea
For a spooky presentation, slice the tops off two oranges with a sharp knife and carefully remove the orange sections from inside.
Carve simple faces into the oranges, similar to mini jack-o’-lanterns. Fill each orange with the chocolate mousse and garnish with mint leaves for a fun Halloween treat.
Apple Monster Mouths
These playful apple snacks are perfect for kids and make a great addition to Halloween parties or after-school treats.
Ingredients
- 2 green apples
- 3 Tbsp. peanut butter
- 2–3 strawberries, sliced
- 2 Tbsp. sunflower seeds
- Small marshmallows
- Chocolate chips
Directions
Cut each apple into quarters. Remove the middle portion of each quarter to create a “mouth” shape.
Spread peanut butter inside the cut gap to form the filling.
Place sunflower seeds along the top edge of the mouth to create “teeth.” Add a slice of strawberry inside the mouth to make the “tongue.”
To create the eyes, poke a small hole into each marshmallow and insert a chocolate chip with the pointed side facing down. Attach the eyes above the mouth using a dab of peanut butter or a small toothpick.
Serve immediately and enjoy these fun Halloween monster snacks.
