Ingredients

  • 40 g milk chocolate buttons
  • 6 chocolate covered mini donuts
  • mini matchmakers*
  • edible candy eyes

Instructions

  • Start by melting the chocolate in a small heat-proof bowl. I melted mine in the microwave at 15 second intervals but you could also melt them in a glass bowl over a saucepan of hot water if preferred.
  • Place a mini donut on a flat surface, chocolate side up. Push 3 mini matchmakers into each side for the legs. Don't worry if they make a bit of a mess by squashing the middles in, it will be covered with chocolate.
  • Push a cake pop or lollipop stick into the bottom of the donut.
  • Using a teaspoon, dollop some chocolate into the centre of the doughnut and use the back of the spoon to level it out.
  • Carefully add two candy eyes to the chocolate.
  • Repeat with the rest of the donuts, then transfer to a plate or tray and pop into the fridge until the chocolate has set then serve. 

Notes

Equipment: Lollipop or cake pop sticks. Notes: I used a pouch of mini matchmakers chocolates but if you can’t find them you can use full size matchmakers instead – just break them down to size.
