Kellogg's are currently running a campaign called 'The Big Bake' which is all about encouraging parents to bake with their children.

GHOSTS

  • Creative fun for hallowe’en
  • Takes 15 – 20 minutes preparation time plus extra for decoration
  • Makes about 8 ghosts

INGREDIENTS

  • ½ tbsp butter or margarine
  • 110g white marshmallows
  • 90g Kellogg’s Rice Krispies (or Ricicles)
  • 50g desiccated coconut
  • Dried cranberries, currants or blueberries for eyes and mouth

METHOD

  • Melt butter or margarine in a large saucepan over a low heat. Add marshmallows and stir until completely melted. Remove from heat
  • Add Kellogg’s Rice Krispies or Ricicles and stir until well coated
  • While mixture is still warm, shape with wet or greased hands into any desired design and roll or press coconut onto surface
  • Attach decorations of choice using a little melted chocolate or prepared icing. If cut, most dried fruit will stick without needing to do this
  • To make flat ghost shapes, flatten mixture onto a greased 33 x 20cm swiss roll baking tray, lined with greaseproof paper, using a greased spatula. The quantity will fill half the tray
  • Depending on required size, cut mixture into squares or rectangles prior to cutting out ghost shapes which can then be bent into required shapes
  • To make 3D ghosts, cone shapes can be made by cutting out triangles and folding round.

TIPS
