This is a really fun recipe for Halloween party food – nutella dirt cup graveyards. I loved making these, but in fact as you will see in the video, it was pretty much the kids that did all the work, it’s super fun, a little messy, plus a fun treat to serve to guests.

Start off bashing your biscuits in a freezer bag, keep bashing using a rolling pin until you have achieved fine crumbs. Spoon a dollop of crumbs in the bottom of some cups.

Next up cut up some leftover cake into cubes, if you don’t have any make one or buy one from a store! Just rough chunks will do, press them down into the cup so you reach about half way.

Add in a bowl the nutella, icing sugar and cream cheese and mix until combined it should be a smooth texture and light brown in colour.

Dollop this nutella filling into the cups nearly all the way to the top, then it is just a case of decorating. Use green sugar crystals to look like grass, I sprayed some ice cream wafers silver with edible spray and RIP in melted chocolate for a gravestone, plus some leftover biscuit crumbs to help the grave have a soil effect. Finishing with a skeleton skull works a charm!
