These easy fondant ghost mini muffins are a spooktacular treat for Halloween. Simply roll out white fondant, cut circles larger than your muffins, drape and shape them into ghost forms, then add candy eyes with black icing. Perfect for parties or a fun baking project!

Ingredients

Directions

  1. Sprinkle powdered sugar on your work surface to prevent sticking, then use a rolling pin to roll the white fondant into a thin sheet.
  2. Using a large circle cookie cutter, cut out 4 to 6 circles that are about 1-2 inches wider in diameter than your mini muffins.
  3. Drape each fondant circle over a mini muffin, then gently pinch and pleat the edges to create a ghost-like, wavy shape.
  4. Place a small dab of black decorator’s icing on the back of two candy eyes, then press them onto the front of each fondant-covered muffin to form the ghost's face.
