Description
It was one of those cozy, crisp autumn afternoons when my family and I decided to bring some Halloween fun into the kitchen. We wanted something simple, festive, and, of course, delicious. Enter: Crescent Roll Witch Hats! They’re not just cute; they’re ridiculously easy to make and perfect for a spooky snack or party treat. I swear, these were a hit—especially with the kids! My little ones got a kick out of their witchy appearance, and, honestly, I loved how the warm, flaky crescents paired with the gooey cheese and pepperoni hidden inside. Halloween snacks just don’t get better than this!
Ingredients
Scale
- 1 can of crescent roll dough (8 rolls)
- 8 slices of pepperoni
- 4 mozzarella cheese sticks (cut in half)
- 1 egg (lightly beaten)
- Poppy seeds (optional for decoration)
- 8 black olives (cut into small rounds for the “buckle”)
- Mustard (for decorating, optional)
Instructions
- Preheat your oven to 375°F (190°C). Line a baking sheet with parchment paper or spray with non-stick cooking spray.
- Unroll the crescent roll dough and separate it into triangles.
- On the wide end of each triangle, place one slice of pepperoni and half of a mozzarella stick.
- Roll up the dough, starting from the wide end, forming a crescent shape. Pinch the ends slightly to give them a more pointed “witch hat” look.
- Brush each crescent with the lightly beaten egg to give them that golden, crispy finish.
- For extra spookiness, sprinkle poppy seeds over the hats to mimic a textured witch’s hat.
- Bake for 10-12 minutes, or until golden brown.
- Once baked, add a tiny piece of black olive to the middle of each crescent as a “buckle.”
- Optional: Use a small bit of mustard to create decorative designs on the hats if you’re feeling extra creative!
