Ingredients
  

For the cookies:

  • 1 batch of Brown Butter and Maple Chewy Pumpkin Cookies by Butternut Bakery

For decorating:

  • White chocolate I use Ghirardelli melting wafers
  • Black candy melts for the eyes and mouths

Instructions
 

  • Bake the cookies and let them cool completely on a wire rack.
  • Melt white chocolate in 20-second bursts in the microwave, stirring until smooth.
  • Spoon a dollop onto each cookie and drag it down with the back of the spoon to form ghost shapes. Practice on parchment first if needed.
  • Let the chocolate set at room temperature or chill in the fridge for 10 minutes.
  • Melt black candy melts, pipe on eyes and a mouth, and let them dry before serving.
