Ingredients
  

  • 16 oz canned chocolate frosting
  • 12 plain glazed donuts
  • 1 cup Oreo crumbs
  • 24 mini gummy worms
  • 1 cup chocolate chips
  • 6 Milano Cookies

Instructions
 

  • Soften Chocolate Frosting:

    Place the chocolate frosting in a medium microwave-safe bowl and heat in the microwave for roughly 20 seconds to soften it.
  • Dip Donuts in Frosting:

    Immerse the tops of the donuts in the melted frosting, tilting them to allow excess to drip off.
  • Coat with Oreo Crumbs:

    Pour the Oreo crumbs into a medium bowl. Press the frosted donut tops into the crumbs until fully coated.
  • Insert Gummy Worms:

    Insert two mini gummy worms into the frosting on each donut, pressing them in.
  • Melt Chocolate Chips:

    Put the chocolate chips into a small microwave-safe bowl. Microwave for 30 seconds, then stir. Repeat heating in 15-second bursts until the chocolate is smooth and completely melted.
  • Prepare Piping Bag:

    Pour the melted chocolate into a zip-top bag, seal it, and snip off a tiny corner.
  • Halve Milano Cookies:

    Slice each Milano cookie in half across the middle.
  • Pipe RIP Letters:

    Pipe the letters 'RIP' onto each cookie half to create headstone shapes.
  • Insert Cookie Headstones:

    Gently push the cookie headstones into the donuts.
  • Let Set 20 Minutes:

    Allow the frosting and chocolate to set for a minimum of 20 minutes prior to serving.
