Ingredients
Directions
- Melt 6 ounces of white chocolate in a microwave-safe bowl. Heat in 30-second bursts, stirring after each, until smooth. A double boiler works too.
- Line a baking tray with parchment paper.
- Dip each Nutter Butter cookie into the melted white chocolate, covering one side fully. Let excess drip off, then place on the parchment-lined tray.
- While the chocolate is still soft, press two candy eyeballs onto each cookie for the ghost's eyes.
- When the chocolate is slightly set but still tacky, use black cookie icing to draw ghost mouths. Simple expressions work best.
- Refrigerate the cookies for 15–20 minutes until the chocolate is fully hardened.
- Arrange the ghost cookies on a platter and serve.
