If you are going to bake brownies to use in this recipe, I suggest using an individual brownie pan to make your brownies all of equal size and for their edges to be baked.

Here are some tips for making Halloween marshmallow ghost brownies.
Using store-bought brownies makes this recipe even easier to make. Day old brownies works great because they are less soft than the fresh baked variety.
Some more helpful tips for you.
- If you are using a standard baking pan to bake your brownies, prep the pan well so that the brownies will stay intact when you go to cut them. Use foil or parchment that is sprayed with nonstick for example.
- When lining your baking pan, have the foil or parchment overhang the edges of the pan. This will make it easier to transfer the brownies to a hard surface for cutting.
- The last step in the decorating portion of this recipe is to pip chocolate. You can use a piping tip or a cut corner from a zip top bag (with practice) to do so.

- Use edible eyes instead of painting on eyes.

How to make these Spooky Brownies
Step 1. Bake brownies as indicated on the packaging. Allow for the brownies to fully cool before removing them from the pan. After the brownies have fully cooled place the brownies in the refrigerator for at least 30 minutes or freezer for for 10. Cut the brownies into evenly sized pieces. If you are using already made brownies that have been cooled and cut, skip this step.
Step 2. Line a rimmed baking sheet with parchment paper. Then place the individual brownies onto the baking sheet, leaving some room between each brownie. Place a marshmallow on top of each of the brownies.
Step 3. In a microwave-safe bowl, melt the white chocolate, stopping every 30 seconds to stir. Then use a spoon to drizzle the melted white chocolate over each of the marshmallows and brownies. Place the baking sheet with brownies in the refrigerator for ten minutes to harden.
Step 4. Place the chocolate chips in a microwave safe baggie and heat (most name brands should work) and heat the bag in the microwave for 45 seconds. Tip: place the bag on a microwave-safe plate. Remove the bag and massage it with your hand to help melt all of the chocolate. If not fully melted, heat for an additional 20 seconds, and massage again.
Snip the opposite corner off the baggie, and insert the piping tip, and move chocolate to that side of the baggie.
Gently squeeze chocolate through the piping tip to make one dot for each of the eyes, and an oval for the mouth.
Step 5. Allow the ghost brownies to cool before serving.
