These adorable witch hat brownie pops with chocolate-dipped sugar cones are ready in just 10 minutes and under 95 calories each. The fastest, most charming Halloween day treat kids and adults love making together.
Ingredients
- 8 small brownie bites (from a box mix or pre-made, about 1-inch cubes)
- 8 sugar cones (mini size)
- 1/4 cup dark chocolate chips (60% cocoa)
- 1 tablespoon coconut oil

- Orange and purple sprinkles (optional)
Instructions
- 1. Line a baking sheet with parchment paper. Place each brownie bite on the sheet, flat side up.
- 2. Insert a sugar cone upside down onto each brownie bite to form the witch hat shape. Press gently to secure.
- 3. In a small microwave-safe bowl, combine dark chocolate chips and coconut oil. Microwave in 15-second bursts, stirring between, until melted and smooth.
- 4. Dip the top of each hat (the cone tip) into the melted chocolate, allowing excess to drip off. Place back on the sheet.
- 5. While chocolate is still wet, press a pretzel stick into the chocolate at an angle to resemble the hat buckle. Add sprinkles if desired.
- 6. Refrigerate for 5 minutes to set chocolate. Serve immediately or store in an airtight container.

Why This Dish Belongs in Your Busy Schedule
Here’s the thing: this recipe is pure efficiency. You’re not carefully assembling desserts. You’re throwing chocolate chips and coconut oil into a bowl, blasting it in the microwave, and swirling brownie cubes through the melted mess. No stand mixer. No chilled dough. No waiting. Why does this belong in your busy schedule? Because the two hardest steps are “unwrap” and “dip.” I don’t even bother with a double boiler. Microwave, stir, go. No one tastes the difference. Store-bought brownie bites work the same as homemade. Frozen brownie bites? Even better—they hold their shape. One bowl, one spoon, one cookie sheet. If this used more than one bowl, I wouldn’t be writing about it. More brownie fuel? See Brownie Ice Cream Sandwich with Salted Caramel.

The Perfect Occasion for This Recipe
Be honest: this is not a dinner party dessert. You’re not impressing anyone with piping bags or tempering chocolate. This is for the Tuesday when you got home from the gym, don’t want to talk to anyone, and need a Halloween treat before your kid starts questioning your parenting. Ten minutes. That’s the whole window. You can do this while the coffee is brewing or before you collapse on the couch. AllRecipes calls these Witch Hat Brownie Pops because that’s exactly what they are. No fancy occasion. No theme. Just chocolate, cones, and a tiny bit of sprinkles if you have them. This is the recipe you make when your energy is negative and your willpower is down to nothing. It’s the last thing standing between you and a bowl of cereal for dinner.
Frequently Asked Questions
Can I use store-bought brownie bites?
Yes. Do it. Save your energy. Cube them cold and dip them fast. Store-bought is completely fine tonight.
My chocolate is too thick. Help.
Add one teaspoon of coconut oil. Microwave in 10-second blasts. Stir. Stop when it’s shiny. Move.
Can I make these the night before?
Yes. Keep them in the fridge. They stay firm and ready for lunchboxes. Don’t stack them until the chocolate sets.
Can I swap dark chocolate for candy melts?
Candy melts? Yes. White chocolate? Yes. Anything that melts works. Add a tiny splash of oil if it fights you.
