Ghost Meringues
To get started, you will need an electric mixer. I have a Kitchen Aid stand mixer and it works perfectly. But, any handheld mixer will work too! You’ll also need a baking sheet, some non-stick spray, and foil. To create the fun ghost meringue shape, you will also need icing bags and large round icing tips (sometimes found at your local craft store). Oh, and if you have kids around, get them involved!
ingredients
- 4 Egg Whites
- 1/2 tsp of Cream of Tartar
- 1 cup of Sugar
- Black Decorating Icing Gel
instructions
- Preheat oven to 225 degrees.
- Using an electric mixer, whip the egg whites for a few minutes on high speed until they become frothy (you will see lots of little bubbles).
- Next, add your sugar in small amounts.
- Finally, mix in the cream of tartar.
- Continue to whip the mixture until it gets stiff (meaning that it holds a shape when stopped).
- Prepare your baking sheet with a layer of foil covered with non-stick spray.
- Place the meringue mixture into an icing bag.
- Using your icing bag and a large round icing tip, continually press the meringue mixture directly down onto the foil. Press down and lift up to create layered stacks for each ghost (release the pressure just a tiny bit, pulling up on your frosting bag at the same time in between each layer).
- Bake them for about 45 minutes or until the tops become a little brown.
- Once they are completely cooled, they will harden and be ready to decorate with black gel frosting!
- Add eyes and mouths to your ghost (or create silly faces!).
- Store in an air tight container.

How to Make Owl S’mores
Ingredients:
- graham crackers
- marshmallows
- chocolate chips
- yellow candy melts
- candy corn
- Cut one marshmallow in half and place both pieces on a large
graham cracker (2 stuck together). - Put a candy melt on top of the marshmallows.
- Heat in the microwave for about 2-5 seconds, just enough to make the marshmallows puff up, but not get too hot. (Time depends on your microwave – make sure to do a few test runs.)
- Take out of microwave and add a chocolate chip on the yellow candy melt and the candy corn beak while the marshmallows and candy are still warm. Everything should stick together nicely.
- Let cool and serve! You can make these the night before a party and everything is still very tasty.
Prep time: 10 minutes
