Meringue Ghosts
A few great scary Halloween additions to these Meringue Ghosts are Spooky Spider Cupcakes, Chocolate Mummy Cupcakes and Skinny Mummy Cake Balls.
I have so many of these ghosts in my home I started naming them! Each one has it’s own personality and character, aren’t they just so cute! They’re great as a cupcake topper or can even be kept as cookies. This recipe was from the Joy of Baking, but I’ve been seeing these ghosts popping up all over the place lately. The original recipe states it makes 24 ghosts, but I made several batches and each time I got around 36 ghosts. As I’ve mentioned in my other meringue recipes, they key to successful meringues is to make sure your bowls and spatulas are squeaky clean; metal bowls are recommended since plastic can hold traces of grease. The eggs should be room temperature, so leave them out at least 30 minutes before you are ready to begin.
