Tips for Making the Best Halloween Snow Caps
Don’t make the chocolate dots too large. Smaller dots are easier to pull into recognizable ghost shapes and will give you bite-sized treats.
Work quickly. The white chocolate needs to be melted when you drag it with the toothpick, so work with a few ghosts at a time if your chocolate starts to firm up.
Use a toothpick for the faces. You only need the tiniest amount of chocolate for the eyes and mouths. A toothpick makes it much easier to control.
FAQs
What kind of sprinkles should I use?
Any Halloween sprinkles will work. Nonpareils are especially fun because they give these treats that classic Snow Caps look, but you can use a Halloween sprinkle mix, too.
Can I make these ahead of time?
Absolutely. These are a great make-ahead Halloween treat. Once the chocolate has completely hardened, store them in an airtight container until you’re ready to serve them.
How do I make the ghost shapes?
Simply place a small dot of melted white chocolate onto the sprinkles and use a toothpick to drag the chocolate downward, creating the ghost’s body and tail. You can make each ghost a little different.
Can kids help make these?
Definitely! Kids can help add the sprinkles, watch the ghosts take shape, and decorate them with little chocolate faces. Just supervise them around the melted chocolate.
