Pretzel Bones
Recipe by Miss Sophie
36 thin pretzel sticks of various lengths
72 mini marshmallows (about 1 cup)
1. Follow the instructions on the candy wafers package to melt ½ of the bag in a wide bowl.
2. For each bone, press marshmallows onto both ends of a pretzel stick or rod, with the marshmallows’ flat sides parallel to the pretzel.
3. Dip each pretzel into the melted candy to coat it. Lift it out with a fork, letting the excess drip back into the bowl. Place the bone onto a sheet of waxed paper to set at room temperature.
Strawberry Ghosts
Recipe by Miss Sophie
8 ounces white baking chocolate, chopped
1 teaspoon shortening
1/4 cup miniature semisweet chocolate chips
1. Wash strawberries and gently pat with paper towels until completely dry.
2. In a microwave-safe bowl, melt white chocolate and shortening at 50% power; stir until smooth.
3. Dip strawberries in chocolate mixture; place on a waxed paper-lined baking sheet.
4. Immediately press chocolate chips into coating for eyes. Freeze 5 minutes.
5. In microwave, melt remaining chocolate chips; stir until smooth. Transfer melted chocolate to a small sealable freezer bag. Cut a small portion of one of the tips off and use chocolate to draw mouth.
6. Keep refrigerated until time to serve.
