These vampire donuts make me laugh! I first made these for my boys in 2013, and they were such a hit that we've made them a few more times over the years.
Why I Like This Treat
- Quick and easy. Each donut takes less than 30 seconds to assemble. You'll have a dozen vampire donuts done in no time!
- Great for class parties. If your school is like ours and doesn't allow homemade treats, these donuts are the perfect store-bought alternative that still lets you be creative.
- Fun to customize. Add red gel frosting to add blood or attach sprinkles. You can also use chocolate or Halloween sprinkle donuts to create a variety of vampires.

Tips and Tricks
- Creating the vampire eyes: I used mini chocolate chips, but you could use candy eyes, M&Ms, or even gel frosting.
- Keeping donuts fresh: Donuts are better eaten the same day you buy them. They are so quick to assemble that you can do it right before you serve them. If you are using day-old donuts, just warm them up for 6-8 seconds to soften the glaze. The glazed donuts at Walmart are a great deal and work perfectly for these as well.
- Low-sugar alternative: For a healthier option, try placing the vampire fangs in a bagel!
- Another use for plastic vampire fangs: Got leftover fangs? Use them to make my mini vampire pumpkins! So fun and hilarious.
How To Make Vampire Donuts
Step 1: Push two mini chocolate chips into each donut, pointy side down.
Step 2: Gently push a set of vampire teeth into the center of each donut.
Vampire Donuts FAQs
Any type of donut will work. If using glazed donuts, you can warm them in the microwave for 3 seconds to soften the glaze, preventing it from cracking when you insert the vampire teeth.
If you'd like to make your own donuts instead of using store-bought ones, try my raised donuts recipe or baked powdered sugar donuts.
It is best to eat these donuts the same day they are assembled.

Where did you buy the colored vampire teeth?
Brandy says
Hi Mallory! I found those at Target last year. I saw them again this year in the seasonal section. You can get a mesh bag of them for around $3. Hope that helps!
