For the easiest dessert ever for a Halloween party or after a spooky family dinner, make these ice cream cups! (Should that be Monster Eyes-cream?!)
They are a fun, kid-friendly dessert made with rainbow sherbet – or any other flavor that you enjoy!
The kids can help you decorate the ice cream with candy eyeballs either before the party starts or you can let your guests decorate their own.
Or you could set up a fun Monster Dessert Bar with different flavor ice creams, sherbets and/or sorbets. Plus a whole bunch of candy eyeballs and other monster themed sprinkles!
Set out bowls and spoons, and let guests build their own monster cups!
