Instructions
- 1
Cut the graham crackers into isosceles trapezoids. See the video for a visual demonstration of how to do this.
- 2
Melt 1 cup red candy melts with 1 tbsp of vegetable shortening in the microwave 1 minute at a time on 50% power until melted. Dip the trapezoids into the chocolate and set on a silicone mat lined baking sheet to set.
- 3
In a separate bowl, melt 1/2 cup black candy melts with 1/2 tbsp of vegetable shortening in the microwave 1 minute at a time on 50% power until melted. Dip the white candy melt rounds slightly into the black chocolate, adding hair to each vampire face. Set aside to set.
- 4
Transfer the melted black candy melts into a squeeze bottle and pipe a black border around each red collar. Set aside.
- 5
Reheat the red candy melts as needed. Transfer to a squeeze bottle and pipe a mouth onto each vampire face. Add 2 white jimmie sprinkles as fang teeth to each mouth. Press down with a toothpick as needed.
- 6
Pipe 2 red dots onto the face where the candy eyes will go, then add the candy eyes - the red candy melts will act as glue.
- 7
Attach the vampire face to the collar by pipping a dollop of red candy melts onto the collar where you’ll attach the face.

Allow the vampire treats to set before displaying on a plate, etc.
