Needing a rice krispie treat idea for Halloween? I love how easy these Rice Krispie Ghosts are to make!
I love making rice krispie treats. They are easy to make and fun to decorate for holidays.
How to make Rice Krispie Ghosts
For these ghosts, I simply used a ghost cookie cutter, candy melts, and dark chocolate!
I ended up spooning the white candy melts onto the ghosts. The plan was to dip the tops in the bowl but the ghosts were bigger than the bowl.
For the dark chocolate, I put the melted chocolate into a sandwich bag and cut a small hole in the corner to pipe the eyes onto the ghosts. This makes for very easy clean up.
