Favorite recipe from Idaho Potato Commission

5 cups mashed Idaho potatoes
Wax paper
1/2 cup small black olives

Cut ghost shapes out of wax paper to use as templates.

Place templates on serving dish or cookie sheet. Use rubber spatula to mold 1/2 to 1 cup potatoes into each ghost shape.

Slice olives to create circular shapes to be used for eyes and mouth.

NOTE: To warm Mashed Potato Ghosts, microwave on HIGH for 2 to 4 minutes on microwavable plate. If using oven, place potatoes on cookie sheet and re-heat at 350 degrees F, loosely covered with foil, for 7 to 8 minutes or until heated through.
