These Ghost Jello Shots are an easy, spooky treat!

These little Ghost Jello Shots are adorable and delicious!  Made with green apple gelatin these are so flavorful.  Perfect for Halloween parties.  These are easy to make with alcohol for adults or you can leave out the alcohol for kids.

Halloween is just around the corner and what better to make than these cute Jello Ghosts!  I just get the little mold right off Amazon HERE.  These are so great for parties and for kids!  These can be made with or without alcohol so they are great for whatever age group you are entertaining. 

My favorite part is that these comes together so quick and is always impressive.  This is going to be your go to dessert for all your Halloween parties and will always be a hit! Everyone will be asking you to bring these to all the parties!

I remember when I was a kid jello jigglers were all the rage and we would beg our parents to make them, and then came the jello eggs that we made every Easter!  Now here are jello ghosts perfect for Halloween and super nostalgic!

These spooky little shots start with green apple jello and then you just use a little food coloring to paint on eyes. 

I love that you can easily make these for adults or children.  If making them for children just replace the alcohol in the recipe for water.

These are such a fun and spooky little treat that all ages love.  You can even get creative and change up the colors and flavors.  Purple and orange ghosts would be adorable!

I promise this will be your new go-to treat for Halloween!

Gather your ingredients.

Mix up the jello.

Pour into mold and chill to set.

Can I use any flavor Jello?

Of course!  I used green apple jello but you can use lime or watermelon.  You can also use orange or grape for purple or orange ghosts.

What alcohol do I add?

I keep it simple and just use vodka but there are a ton of flavored vodkas out there you can use. 

Can I make these for kids?

Of course!  Just use water instead of the alcohol in the recipe. 

How do I make sure the ghosts come out of the mold?

Make sure you grease the molds liberally and make sure you give the jello plenty of time to set up.  If you still have trouble getting them out of the mold because it can be tricky you can reduce the amount of water by 1/4 cup.

 

Ingredients used

• Green Apple Gelatin –  I used green apple but you can use lime or any flavor you like. 
• Boiling Water –  You do need boiling water to dissolve the jello. 
• Vodka or cold water –  Use your favorite vodka or substitute it for water if making for children.
• Ghost mold – I got mine from Amazon HERE.
• Black food coloring –  I find a gel food coloring works best. 
• Non-stick spray –  You do need this for the mold and don’t skimp when using it. 

 

How to make Ghost Jello Shots

1. On a tray set out your molds and set aside for later. 
2. In a large measuring cup with a spout or a mixing bowl with a spout add 1 cup of boiling water and your jello.
3. Whisk until the jello is all dissolved.
4. Next add in your 1/2 cup of vodka or cold water.
5.  Whisk again.
6. Lightly spray the molds with non-stick spray.
7. Carefully pour the mixture into the molds.
8. Place them in the fridge for 3-4 hours or until they are set.
9. I gently pull the sides away from the bottom of the molds and then flip the mold and gently squeeze the back of the mold until they pop out.  You want to be careful getting these out. 
10. Keep these refrigerated until ready to serve and keep cool while serving.
11. You can take a tiny paint brush and some black food coloring to paint on the eyes and mouths. 
12. Serve!

Notes

• Store leftovers in the fridge for up to 4 days. 
• You can also use lime jello which comes in a 3 ounce box.
• The green apple jello does make more than 8 shots and the mold comes in 8 so if you want more you could buy more molds or just make more of the jello mixture after the first batch sets.
• The lime jello should yield 8 shots without having too much leftover.
