When you bring out an emotional reaction with food, then you know you’ve done your job. Whenever I make these Ghost Brownies for a party, laughter is quickly followed by the sounds of mmm.

The first time I made these I couldn’t stop laughing at them, and my kids couldn’t stop eating them because they’re out of this world good.

Halloween treats are my favorite theme, and when I made these fun ghostly brownies, I knew I had a winner. You get two treats in one! A perfectly dense brownie served with a giant marshmallow and frosting on top.

Everyone is sure to love these! On Halloween we all know that the more treats the better. 😉

One new tradition that we’ve started is decorating the ghosts together. We carve our pumpkins and decorate our brownies. It’s such a blast! Everyone gets to showcase their creepy creativity. I guarantee that you try this out with your family, and everyone is sure to get into the spooky mood.

You can use any brownies you want! If you prefer homemade brownies try my Chocolate Fudge Brownies as a base, or you can make your favorite box of brownie mix.

CAN I USE MORE MARSHMALLOWS?

Absolutely!  Try stacking them to see who can get the tallest ghost?

HOW LONG DO THE BROWNIES KEEP?

Keep refrigerated for 3 to 5 days.

  1. What is your secret to keep the gel frosting from running on the ghost? I’ve tried refrigerator and freezer, as soon as they thaw, it runs.

    1. I recommend using the Wilton or Betty Crocker brand of food gels. They are both great quality gels that are stiffer. I’ve noticed that the Great Value brand is really runny and doesn’t work.
