Pumpkin Ghosts

Pumpkin Ghosts

1 box(es) (14-ounce) pumpkin quick bread
1 cup(s) milk
1/3 cup(s) vegetable oil
2 large eggs
1 can(s) (16-ounce) vanilla frosting
Black round sprinkles

Directions

Heat oven to 375 degrees F. Grease the inside of 2 mini-ghost pans* (6 molds per pan) and place them on a cookie sheet.

Prepare quick bread according to package directions using milk, vegetable oil, and eggs. Divide batter evenly between the ghost pans. Bake until golden brown and a toothpick inserted in center comes out clean, 20 to 25 minutes. Transfer to a wire rack; invert and cool completely.

Line a cookie sheet with wax paper. Place a wire rack on top of cookie sheet. Trim tops of ghosts to make level and trim to make ghost shape. Arrange ghosts, cut side down, on wire rack about 2 inches apart.

Spoon vanilla frosting into a 2-cup glass measuring cup. Microwave on high, stirring frequently, until frosting is the texture of slightly whipped cream, about 15 to 20 seconds. (Do not overheat.)

Pour frosting over ghost cakes to cover completely. Reuse drippings if necessary; reheat and pour over cakes. Let cakes stand about 30 minutes to set. Carefully transfer to a serving platter. Add black sprinkles as the eyes.
