Scary Ghost Cookies Description
A recipe for Scary Ghost Cookies

Ingredients

  • 1 (11.4-ounce) bag Twix Caramel Cookie Bars Fun Size
  • 1 (9.5-ounce) bag M&M'S Minis Milk Chocolate Candies Halloween Mini Packs
  • 3/4 cup peanut butter
  • 1/3 cup confectioner's sugar
  • 1 (16-ounce) container vanilla frosting
  • 1 cup ground chocolate wafers (approximately 20 thin wafers)

Preparation
Prep time: 10 minutes | Decoration time: 25 minutes

1. In food processor or blender, pulse 10 graham crackers and 1 bag Twix until fine.

2. Transfer mixture to large bowl. Add peanut butter and confectioner's sugar to bowl and blend.

3. Divide mixture into 16 pieces. Shape each piece into ghost. If too sticky, add extra confectioners' sugar as necessary. Place ghosts onto waxed paper and refrigerate 30 minutes.

4. Heat frosting in microwave approximately 10 to 20 seconds, until thinned and looking slightly like whipped cream. Place ghosts on wire rack over sheet pan lined with waxed paper. Spoon heated frosting over ghosts until completely coated. If unused frosting begins firming up, simply reheat 5 to 10 seconds.

5. Place 2 M&M'S on each ghost for eyes. Sprinkle ground chocolate cookies on serving plate like "dirt." Nestle ghosts in "dirt."
