MARSHMALLOW GHOSTS
This is one
of our all time favorites for a really sweet treat and a Halloween
Online original! We used white
chocolate melts to dip these but you can use what ever flavor or color
you like. They are easy to
make and you can use them to hand out as treats as well by adding
plastic sucker wraps and a black ribbon or rubber band.
INGREDIENTS
Marshmallows
Chocolate Melts (your color & flavor choice)
4" sucker sticks
Black decorating gel
Stick marshmallows into a
4" lollipop sticks, and place them in the freezer for about 15 minutes, until they
are cold.
PREPARATION
While the marshmallows are chilling,
heat one cup of chocolate melts, I used white this time, slowly on a simmering heat
(Wilton's Candy Melts work great) in a double-boiler, stirring constantly until the
chocolate is completely melted.
Remove the marshmallows
from the freezer and dip them lightly in the melted chocolate for a thin coating. To get a
Mummy look, swirl them a bit to look like layers of white wrapped around it. Ghosts should
be dunked to make a little twisted peak on top. Frankenstein can be dunked and a spoon
used to flatten the chocolate on top.
Use a block of Styrofoam to
stick them in to cool. If you stick them in the fridge it shouldn't take long for them to
set up.
After
they harden, you can add faces. Using a small tube of black decorating gel, with a small
tip, carefully paint on two ghostly eyes onto the marshmallow. Add a little mouth as well.
STORAGE
& SERVING
Pick out the more mummy looking ones and turn them into the undead,
like the picture below, last one on the right. You can stick these in sucker cellophane
wraps to keep or just stick in your refrigerator but I don't that they'll be around for
very long!!
TIP: Use green melts for
Frankenstein, Orange for Jack-O-Lanterns, white for ghosts and mummies.
