Halloween Party: Day Four

Good morning! Welcome to day four of my Halloween week. If you have not gotten a chance to comment on all of the post make sure you do so for the chance to win the Grand Prize, a Scrap n' Tote. Here is my ghostly recipe:

I love this recipe and think it makes such a cute Halloween treat to give someone. Here is the instructions for the jar recipe:

Layer all ingredients in a 1 quart jar:  One package of crushed graham crackers (once it is all crushed it is about 2/3 cup), layer the ghost peeps standing up in a circle depending on how wide your jar is it will be around 6 or 7 ghost. Now you will have a center in the middle of the ghost, pour your 1 1/2 cups of M&Ms, top it off with 1/3 cup brown sugar.
Here is the directions for your accompanying recipe card:


Spooky Ghost S’mores
Directions:  Pour contents into a bowl. Cut the ghost into small bits and add back to the mixture. In a bowl melt 1/2cup plus 2 tbsp of butter, then add 1 tsp of Vanilla. Add to the dry mixture and mix well. Pour and pat down in 8x8 baking pan Bake at 350 for 15-20 minutes. Cool, cut into bars, and serve. If you need a little chill you can omit the vanilla, bake and then serve warm over ice cream, or use a blender to mix with ice cream to make a blizzard!
Once I finished adding the ingredients into the jar I topped it with some Halloween fabric, and then tied some raffia to hold it in place. I used K&Company Ghostly Greetings for the patterned paper...I love this stack,it is  my favorite this year. The ghost was cut from Paper Doll Dress Up, and I added a Peachy Keen face from Basic Paper Dolls Assortment-PK570 the little ghost is from the Nikkity Knack Cat Gang-PK-630. 

For today my first sponsor is Peachy Keen Stamps and they are donating their new In Stitches 11/8 Faces-PK-487:

My second sponsor for today is Trade Fish Designs.  I used their super spooky Halloween set, Rest In Peace, in yesterdays post. Here is a perfect set for the Fall/Thanksgiving season:

This is more than a little bit awesome. :)I know someone who would LOVE this (she's a bit of a Halloween nut), so I may have to lift this from you. I LOVE the way those marshmallow ghosts look like they're trying to find a way out of the jar. HA! Too funny. :)
