Notes
- Change up the pudding: Try vanilla, cheesecake, butterscotch, pistachio or Oreo pudding. Nutella or cookie butter can also be used instead of peanut butter.
- Customize the Oreos: Use your favorite Oreo flavor, including chocolate, peanut butter or seasonal varieties.
- Decorate your way: Tint coconut with green or orange gel food coloring, or add candy eyes and bones for a spookier Halloween look.
- Easy substitutions: Homemade whipped topping can replace Cool Whip. Press the jack-o’-lantern chocolates firmly into the Oreo crumbs and use coconut behind them for extra support if needed.
