HALLOWEEN RECIPES

This is a very simple treat but it really tastes good! I tried it for my first Halloween party because it was so simple but everyone gobbled them down!

MARSHMALLOW GHOSTS

Ingredients
Marshmallows
4" sucker sticks
Chocolate Melts (white for ghosts but your color choice)
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 white chocolate melts slowly on a simmering heat (Wilton's Candy Melts work great) in a double-boiler, stirring constantly until the chocolate is completely melted. You can use different color melts for different monsters. Mummies can be white, green for Frankie.

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. Orange can be used to make Jack-O-Lanterns.

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. Decorate other monsters accordingly.

Storage& Serving
Pick out the more mummy looking ones and turn them into the undead, like the picture here, last one on the right. You can stick these in sucker cellophane wraps to keep or just stick in your refrigerator until ready to serve.

TIP: Use green melts for Frankenstein, Orange for Jack-O-Lanterns, White for ghosts and mummies.
