Ingredients (Serves 4-6)

• 3 tablespoons unsalted butter
• 4 cups mini marshmallows
• 6 cups Rice Krispies cereal
• 1 cup white chocolate chips
• Candy eyes
• Lollipop sticks
• Black food coloring gel (optional)

Instructions

1. Prepare the Base: Begin by melting the unsalted butter in a large saucepan over low heat. Add the mini marshmallows and stir continuously until they’re completely melted and the mixture is smooth.

2. Mix with Cereal: Remove the saucepan from the heat and immediately add the Rice Krispies cereal. Stir the mixture until the cereal is evenly coated with the marshmallow mixture.

3. Shape the Ghosts: Allow the mixture to cool slightly before handling. With buttered hands, shape portions of the mixture into ghostly forms. You can make them oval or give them flowing ghostly tails for a more dramatic effect.

Place the shaped ghosts onto a baking sheet lined with parchment paper.

4. Add the Sticks: Insert a lollipop stick into the bottom of each ghost shape, ensuring it’s secure but not poking through the top.

5. Coat with Chocolate: Melt the white chocolate chips in a microwave-safe bowl, heating in 30-second intervals and stirring in between until smooth. Dip each ghost into the melted chocolate, using a spoon to help cover them completely.

Place them back on the parchment paper.

6. Decorate: Before the chocolate sets, add candy eyes to each ghost. If desired, use a toothpick dipped in black food coloring gel to draw mouths or other facial features on each ghost.

7. Let Set: Allow the chocolate to harden at room temperature or place the pops in the refrigerator for faster setting.

Extra Tips

When shaping the ghosts, work quickly while the mixture is still pliable; if it starts to harden, you can warm your hands slightly to make shaping easier.

If you’re having trouble with the sticks staying in place, try dipping the end of each stick in some of the melted white chocolate before inserting it into the ghost shapes. This will help secure the stick once the chocolate hardens.

Customize your Ghostly Ghoul Pops by adding sprinkles or using different colors of food coloring gel for extra personality. Enjoy the spooky fun!

2. Melt the Butter and Marshmallows: In a large saucepan, melt 3 tablespoons of butter over low heat. Add the 10 oz package of marshmallows to the melted butter, stirring continuously until the marshmallows are completely melted and smooth.
3. Add Food Coloring: Once the marshmallows are melted, add several drops of green food coloring. Stir until the color is evenly distributed, adding more drops as needed to achieve your desired shade of green.
4. Mix in Rice Krispies: Remove the saucepan from heat and quickly stir in the 6 cups of Rice Krispies cereal. Mix until the cereal is evenly coated with the green marshmallow mixture.
5. Shape the Brains: Working quickly, drop spoonfuls of the mixture onto the prepared baking dish. Use your hands to shape each spoonful into a rough brain shape. Make sure your hands are slightly damp to prevent sticking.
6. Add Mini Marshmallows: While the treats are still warm, press a few mini marshmallows into the top of each “brain” for added texture and creepiness.
7. Decorate with Red Icing: Once the treats are set, use red gel icing or melted red candy melts to drizzle over the brains, creating a gory effect.
8. Cool Completely: Allow the Zombie Brain Bites to cool completely at room temperature before serving.

Extra Tips:

For an even spookier effect, consider adding some edible eyes to your Zombie Brain Bites. You can find these at most craft stores or online.

If you prefer a slightly different texture, try adding a few drops of vanilla extract to the marshmallow mixture for an extra hint of flavor.

When shaping the “brains,” work quickly as the mixture can harden as it cools. If necessary, reheat the mixture briefly to make it easier to shape.

Enjoy these creepy creations and watch them disappear at your Halloween celebration!
