Ingredients
Scale
Main Ingredients:
- 1 pack (200 grams) chocolate chunk cookies
- 9 regular-sized marshmallows
Sweet Coating:
- 175 grams (6.2 ounces) icing sugar
Decorative Ingredient:
- 1 black writing icing
Instructions
- Create a smooth, pourable white icing by blending powdered sugar with water until achieving a thick yet fluid consistency.
- Position cookies on a clean, flat surface covered with parchment paper for easy cleanup.
- Gently submerge the base of each marshmallow into the prepared icing, then carefully center it onto a cookie, ensuring secure placement.
- Using a spoon, delicately cascade the white icing over each marshmallow, allowing it to elegantly flow down the sides and create a spectral appearance.
- Let the icing completely solidify at room temperature for approximately 15-20 minutes until it becomes firm and glossy.
- Utilize black decorative icing to craft expressive ghost faces, adding two circular eyes and a whimsical mouth to transform each cookie into a playful Halloween treat.
- Allow the final design to set for an additional 10 minutes before serving or storing in an airtight container.
Notes
- Choose powdered sugar carefully to avoid lumps and ensure smooth, glossy icing that drips perfectly over marshmallows.
- Work on a clean, flat surface with parchment paper to catch excess icing and make cleanup easier.
- Adjust icing consistency by adding water droplets gradually – too thin will run off, too thick won’t create the ghostly dripping effect.
- Use room temperature marshmallows for better adherence and smoother surface when applying white icing.
