Ingredients
Directions
- Sprinkle powdered sugar on your work surface to prevent sticking, then use a rolling pin to roll the white fondant into a thin sheet.
- 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.
- Drape each fondant circle over a mini muffin, then gently pinch and pleat the edges to create a ghost-like, wavy shape.
- 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.
