Ingredients
Directions
- Prepare a batch of your go-to Rice Krispie Treats using your preferred recipe.
- Instead of a 9x13 pan, spread the mixture into a jelly roll pan to make the treats flatter and yield more ghosts.
- Allow the treats to set slightly, then slice the entire slab into uniform rectangles.
- Shape each rectangle by trimming the top corners into a rounded dome to mimic a ghost's head.
- If making ghost pops, gently insert a stick into the bottom of each ghost.
- Return the shaped ghosts to a parchment-lined baking sheet.
- Let the treats firm up until sturdy.
- In a small bowl, melt white candy melts or white chocolate chips in the microwave in 30-second bursts, stirring between intervals to prevent burning.
- Using a spatula, spread the melted coating over the rounded top and down the front and sides as desired.
- Set the coated ghosts back on the parchment and press mini chocolate chips into the coating for eyes; use a butter knife tip to adjust them without smudging. Optionally, add sprinkles.
- Allow the coating to harden completely—you can speed this up by placing them in the freezer.
