Chocolate Dipped Halloween Marshmallows Recipe

Yum! These Halloween Marshmallows turned out so tasty! Chocolate always compliments marshmallow flavor, and the sprinkles were a nice addition, too.
I used jumbo marshmallows for these, but you can also just use the big ones, if you wanted to make more than just a few.
Ingredients Include: 
5-6 Jumbo Marshmallows
1/2 C. Chocolate Chips
A Dash of Sprinkles
1/2 C. Semi Sweet Chocolate Chips
Festive Ghost Picks

Instructions:

Line a baking sheet with parchment paper and set aside. 

Melt chocolate in a 4C. Pyrex measuring cup. Let them cool slightly, so the marshmallows don't melt. 

Grab a marshmallow, and dip it into the center of the cup of melted chocolate with your hand.
Make sure the chocolate only goes a little over 1/2 way up the marshmallow.

Now, to remove the marshmallow from the chocolate, insert a ghost pick into the center of the marshmallow and pull the mallow out of the cup (it's a bit tricky). This will become the bottom of the treat, so don't worry about the little mark the pick makes. Wipe off any chocolate drips. 

Hold the treat in your hand, white side down. Remove the ghost pick from the mallow (keep the picks) and set the treat (white side down) onto the parchment paper/baking tray. 

While the chocolate is still warm, sprinkle the tops of the treats with a few (or more) sprinkles.
Also, insert the ghost picks into the center of the tops of the treats. Make sure they are straight up and down for the best look.

Place in fridge for 20 minutes, and they are ready to eat!

Happy Halloween! Zombie Eye Pie Recipe

These cute and creepy cherry pies are SO easy! With only a few simple ingredients, you can make these Zombie Eye Pies in no time!

And another variation...
(Use cherry pie filling, red gel icing, and bone candies on top of the pies)
Ingredients for Zombie Eye Pies:
Whipped Cream - Lite or Regular Cherry Pie Filling - Gumdrops - Keebler Mini Pie Crusts 
*Not Pictured: Black + Red Decorator Gel Icing*
Step 1. Fill each mini pie crust with cherry pie filling. I used a tablespoon from my silverware and it worked super well. This used all but about 1/8 of the can - save that for later. 
Step 2. Apply Rediwip in a cone shape. Try not to come too close to the edges, as the whipped cream can melt and drip easily! 
Step 3. Practice this on a paper towel or plate first...Draw the red veins onto the white {whipped cream} part of the eye.  
Step 4. Draw a black pupil onto the gumdrop iris. 
Carefully center the gumdrop on the pie and serve! Guests will find an oozing Scary Cherry filling inside! 

And, that's IT! Super easy and rewarding! Another tip with these is to store them in the fridge or freezer until you serve them. The whipped cream melts relatively fast.

If you make some, let me know how they turn out.
