Tricky-treat-making during the month of October can be fun for the whole family, especially the kids.
Yesterday afternoon we whipped these up in no time at all. From start to finish they take only about ten minutes to put together.
These Ghosts on a Stick are the perfect treat to bring to a Halloween Party. With a delicious pear underneath the coating, everyone will appreciate this semi-healthy treat, especially parents.
So let’s make them up together, shall we…
Here’s what you will need: Pears, Candiquik, almond bark or any white chocolate, mini chocolate chips and popsicle sticks.
First you’ll want to remove the stems from the pears and insert the popsicle sticks.
Prepare the Candiquik according to package directions or melt almond bark or white chocolate as you always do. I like to use Candiquik because it hardens very quickly and is easy for the kids to pour over the pear. Set each pear on waxpaper to dry.
Before the coating or chocolate completely drys, decorate with mini-chocolate chips for the eyes.
Enjoy the ghosts, you will love them.
