Ingredients for Nutter Butter Cookie Ghosts
Before we dive into the nitty-gritty of the recipe, let’s familiarize ourselves with the essential ingredients. To bring these ghostly delights to life, you’ll need:

Nutter Butter Cookie Ghosts-Ingredients
- 1 Family size package of Nutter Butter Cookies
- 1 container Dolci Frutta White Melting Wafers
- 48 mini-chocolate chips for the eyes
Step-By-Step Instructions
- Melt the white chocolate wafers according to package directions. If using regular melting wafters, place them in a microwave-safe bowl and melt in 30 second intervals stirring until smooth.

- Place the coated cookies on parchment paper.
- Drop on two mini-chocolate chips for the eyes.
- Let cookies set for 15-20 minutes.
