How to Make Peanut Butter Fudge Ghosts

These little Halloween snacks are not only fun and easy to make but are also a tasty, gruesome treat. It's an easy craft and cooking project that will keep the little ones busy for quite some time!

Ingredients

  • 340 g (12 oz) dark chocolate chopped
  • 340 g (12 oz) peanut butter
  • 340 g (12 oz) condensed milk
  • 40 g (1.5 oz) grated coconut
  • a few liquorice candy pieces

Things You'll Need

  • 1 saucepan
  • 1 stainless steel bowl
  • 1 wooden spoon
  • 1 square pan
  • 1 spoon
  • 1 whisk
  • 1 tray

Steps

  1. Make the fudge.
    • Bring a saucepan 1/2 filled with water to a simmer. Place a stainless steel bowl over the simmering water.
    • Add the chopped chocolate and peanut butter to the stainless steel bowl and stir occasionally until both are fully melted.
    • Add the condensed milk, whisk together and remove from heat. Allow it to cool slightly.
    • Place the fudge on a tray, spreading it evenly. Put it into the fridge for approximately 1/2 hour to chill and set.
  2. Make the ghosts.
    • Take a spoonful and roll it in your hands.
    • Mould it into the shape of a ghost by pinching the top gently to make a simple, rounded "cone" shape. (See Tips.) Place it on the tray.
    • Sprinkle the ghost in the grated coconut. Roll them around in the grated coconut if you want them to be whiter.
    • Continue to make more ghosts until all the fudge is used.
  3. Decorate and serve. Make the eyes for your ghosts by inserting the liquorice pieces into their scary heads. Let them sit for about 10 minutes to set, then serve and enjoy!

Tips

  • You can get as creative as you want with the shapes, adding arms and odd-shaped heads with big noses or chins, if you wish.
  • If you don't like coconut, try using white chocolate instead.
