What You Need

pkg. (6 oz.) BAKER'S White Chocolate

NUTTER BUTTER Peanut Butter Sandwich Cookies

Decorating gels and/or assorted small candies

Make It

MICROWAVE chocolate in medium microwavable bowl on HIGH 1-1/2 minutes or until chocolate is completely melted, stirring every 30 seconds.

SPREAD chocolate onto one side of each cookie for the ghost's "body." Cool slightly.

DECORATE with gels and/or candies to create "faces." Cool until chocolate is set.

Kraft Kitchens Tips

Fun Idea

Place decorated cookies in small gift bags to give to trick-or-treaters.

Family Fun

For a quick Halloween dessert, prepare JELL-O Chocolate Instant Pudding as directed on package; spoon into dessert cups. Refrigerate until ready to serve. Garnish with decorated cookies just before serving.

How to Make Just a Few Ghosts

If you want to make only a few ghosts, remember that 1 melted chocolate square is enough to frost about 3 cookies.

The kids loved making these. However, the gel did not set in and it made it hard to store them.

I had a hard time finding black gel to decorate with. Plus the gel never really "set" or dried on the cookie. The kids loved them though.

These came out really cute, butthe frosting was difficult to get smooth. I melted white choc chips, worked fine and hardened nicely....Decorator gel isn't the easiest thing to use.....gotta be something easier...I also made them with Snackwell vanilla sandwhich cookies....came out great too!

This was so fun. My kids in child care had a ball dipping the cookies and making the faces. A winner!

Very cute, but if you use the gel decorative frosting, it never hardens so you can't stack them to store which is inconvinient. I packed them out to bring somewhere after being iced and completed for >24 hrs, but all the black gel smudged and they were just a big mess.

It's a cute idea, but the frosting is difficult to spread. I doubled the recipe so it took me a long time!!!!!!
