Notes
History & Origin

Chocolate-dipped strawberry ghosts are a quick Halloween take on the classic dipped berry. This version follows Lil' Luna, the most-rated recipe found, and matches I Heart Naptime, The Comfort of Cooking and Cooking with Karli: dip, drag a tail, then add dark chocolate faces.
