Ghost Cookies Ingredients:
- One package Nutter Butter Cookies
- 1 – 10 oz package of white chocolate (or candy coating)
- ½ c chocolate chips (or dark chocolate candy coating)
Easy Ghost Cookie Directions:
Melt the white chocolate in a large microwave-safe bowl. Heat in 30-second increments and stir well between each interval. Continue to heat and stir until white chocolate is about 90% melted and stir until smooth. Do not overheat the white chocolate – it will scorch and ruin it.
Dip the Nutter Butter cookies until about half of the cookie is covered in white chocolate. Tip the bowl if needed to make it easier to dip. Place on parchment paper and allow to set for about 10 minutes. Continue with the remaining Nutter Butter cookies.
Once the white chocolate is set and all the Nutter Butters have been dipped, melt the dark chocolate. Place the chocolate in a microwave-safe bowl and heat in 30-second increments and stir well between each interval. Once the chocolate is smooth – transfer to a piping bag or Ziploc and snip off a small hole in the tip of the bag.
Pipe a ghost face on each cookie. Allow to cool and set again for an additional 10-15 minutes.
Enjoy!
Storage: Cookies can be stored in an airtight container for up to 3 days.
