A Peek at the Fun: Make your friends smile when you show up at their door with one of these fun Halloween gift ideas-Halloween themed muddy buddies in a jar with a cute gift tag. 

 

Our pants are too tight as we write this post-we think we’ve each gained five pounds putting this post together! We’re suckers for Muddy Buddies and when we’ve got to test out 3 different flavors of Halloween muddy buddies (because we want to make sure we’re giving you the best of the best-we’re givers like that), things get a little crazy and pants get a little tight.

But these Halloween Muddy Buddies are good and when you put one of these cute tags on them and make it into fun Halloween gift ideas to take to friends, good things happen.

Fun Halloween Gift Idea: Muddy Buddy Gift Jars

There are three amazing flavors-each with a fun Halloween theme and each with a coordinating gift tag so that you can package it up cute.

Simple Halloween Gift:

Once you have chosen your favorite flavor (or make all three), all you need to do is grab a jar, fill it up, and add the cute tag.  These Halloween Gift Ideas don’t get any simpler and your friends will love them.

Monster Muddy Buddies:

Here’s a fun monster version, mint Muddy Buddies with Frankenstein on the tag.

  • Author: Fun-Squared

Ingredients

Scale
  • 2 C white chocolate chips
  • 9 C Rice Chex
  • 1 teaspoon coconut extract (optional-add more to taste)
  • 1 1/2 powdered sugar
  • Mini Marshmallows
  • Shredded Coconut
  • Sixlets (optional) (Get these at a party store)

Instructions

Melt your white chocolate. This part is tricky because white chocolate can be finicky. Make sure to stir often whether you are doing it in the microwave or on the stove. Heat and mix till melted.

Put your Chex in a big bowl and then pour your white chocolate mixture over it and stir till it’s covering the Chex evenly.

Add in your coconut extract, pouring it over the mixture.

Sprinkle on your powdered sugar and mix till it covers the Chex.

Sprinkle on mini marshmallows and shredded coconut to taste.

Add Sixlets for a pop of color.

    Thank you for sharing! How did you size these for the mason Jars? Did you use sticker paper?

      I did use sticker paper but you don’t have to if you don’t have it. And I think they should be sized just right?
