Make hats
1 & 2. Spoon some melted chocolate into a small ziplock bag, snip off an end, and squeeze about 1 teaspoon on an Oreo. Place a Hershey Kiss chocolate on it, pressing gently for the chocolate to come around the edges.
Prepare clementines
Start by thoroughly washing and drying the clementines, ensuring they are completely moisture-free. Next, remove the stem ends to provide stability and prevent any wobbling.
3 & 4. Melt chocolate chips in the microwave. Using a toothpick, place a dab of melted chocolate on the back of two candy eyeballs and stick to the clementine.

Tip: Allow the prepared Halloween clementines with eyeballs to sit for a minimum of two hours, giving the chocolate enough time to solidify before serving.
How to store
Prepared Halloween clementines with Oreos can be stored in an air-tight container for up to 2 days. If you wish to hold them longer, refrigerating them will keep them fresh for up to 5 days.

Ingredients
Witch Clementines
- 6 clementines
- ¼ cup semi sweet chocolate chips, melted in microwave
- 6 Hershey's Dark chocolate kisses
- 6 Oreos
- 12 candy eyeballs
Instructions
- Rinse clementines and towel dry very well to remove all moisture and remove any attached stem ends.

- Using the toothpick, place a small dab of melted chocolate on the back of candy eye balls and stick two eyes on each clementine to make a face (refer pictures if needed).
- Make hats - Using the piping bag, squeeze some melted chocolate in the middle of an Oreo and gently place a Hershey's Kiss on top, pressing slightly so that the excess chocolate comes around the edges, to make a decorative pattern. Squeeze more melted chocolate on top of the Clementine and press the Oero hat, on top, pressing gently to adhere.
