A small dessert with orange frosting, a chocolate cake base, a green candy, and a pretzel stick on top sits on a napkin—resembling a pumpkin patch marshmallow treat—with more desserts blurred in the background.

Method
 

  1. Open up the Oreo cookies and scrape out the white cream that is inside.
  2. Crush the cookies into a powder until they look like dirt. Pulsing the cookies in a food processor is the easiest way to do this.
  3. Melt the orange candy melts in the microwave by following directions on the bag.
  4. Using one pretzel stick, dip it into the candy melt and then stick it into the top of a marshmallow. Continue with every pretzel stick and marshmallow. Allow to sit for a minute or two to allow the candy to harden.
  5. Dip the marshmallows into the candy melt. Use a spoon to help coat the entire marshmallow with candy, if needed. Pick up the marshmallow out of the candy melt and allow the excess to drip off.
  6. If your candy melt starts to harden during this process, place it back in the microwave and heat for 10-15 second intervals.
  7. Now dip the bottom of the candy-coated marshmallow into the crushed cookie dirt. Roll the edges slightly to allow some of the cookie crumbs to get up the sides of the pumpkin.
  8. Place a half of a green candy on top of the pumpkin to be the leaf. Gently press the candy into the orange candy melt. If needed, dip the bottom of the green candy leaf into the candy melt and then attach.
  9. Place the marshmallows on wax paper and allow the chocolate to set before serving.

Notes

  • We used Mike and Ike fruit candy for the green leaves.
  • You can substitute chocolate graham crackers for the chocolate cream cookies.
  • Giant marshmallows could be used instead, but you will need to increase the amount of orange candy melts and cookie crumbs that you use.
