Chocolate spoons

Last year I prepared these pink chocolate spoons for a birthday party: they are an easy and low cost recipe, and kids just loved it. This year my oldest son Pablo wanted a small Halloween treat he could bring to share with his friends at school. I needed something quick and easy to eat for 4 year old kids, so, with the same idea, I have prepared these Mummy chocolate spoons just by filling the spoons with dark melted chocolate, placing two white non pareils on each spoon, and then making white lines all over the spoon (excluding right around the eyes) with a piping bag filled with melted white chocolate. Then I let the chocolate spoons set in a cold place until set. The eyes were finished with a black edible pen. Terrifically good and easy!
