Description

White Chocolate Strawberry Ghosts are a quick, no-bake Halloween dessert made with fresh strawberries, melted white chocolate, and candy eyes. They’re festive, adorable, and a lighter alternative to candy-heavy treats.


Ingredients

Scale
  • 1 lb fresh strawberries (medium-large, firm)
  • 10 oz white chocolate (bars or chips)
  • 1 tsp coconut oil (optional, for smoother melting)
  • Candy eyes OR black icing for faces

Instructions

  1. Wash strawberries gently and pat them completely dry. Any moisture will prevent the coating from sticking.
  2. Place chopped white chocolate in a microwave-safe bowl. Heat in 20–25 second bursts, stirring after each round, until melted and smooth. Stir in coconut oil if needed.
  3. Hold a strawberry by the stem and dip it into the melted chocolate, turning it until coated. Let extra chocolate drip off.
  4. Place dipped strawberries on a parchment-lined tray, allowing some chocolate to pool at the bottom to create “ghost tails.”
  5. While still soft, add candy eyes or pipe tiny dots with icing to create ghost faces.
  6. Chill in the refrigerator for 10–15 minutes, or until the chocolate sets. Serve cold.

Notes

  • Best served the same day for freshness.
  • Store in a single layer in an airtight container in the fridge for up to 36 hours.
  • Do not freeze—strawberries become mushy when thawed.
  • Use melted dark chocolate instead of candy eyes if you prefer DIY faces.
