White chocolate fudge swirls decorated with chocolate chips and wafers make stinkin' cute Poop Emoji Fudge Ghosts for Halloween. Watch the video to see how easy they are to create.

Poop Emoji Fudge Ghosts 💩

A swirl of white chocolate fudge can easily be decorated with chocolate chip eyes and a chocolate wafer mouth to look like a Poop Emoji Ghost for your Halloween celebration.

A few years ago I created Chocolate Caramel Fudge Smiling Poo Emoji 💩 and I was stunned when the video went viral with over 5 million views on social media and youtube. So many of my readers sent me pictures of their own versions of their homemade Poop Emoji Fudge that I realized the massive popularity of the smiling pile of poo emoji.

I was worried people would be turned off by the name and the look of the poop emoji fudge, but they loved it, so for Halloween this year, I couldn't resist revisiting this idea and switching things up a bit to make these Poop Emoji Fudge Ghosts.

How Fudge Ghost Poop Became Poop Emoji Fudge Ghosts

This idea for these Poop Emoji Fudge Ghosts actually came about when I was trying to come up with a new and creative version of ghost poop, ya' know the little marshmallows or meringues packaged in a bag with a tag that says "Ghost Poop" on it?

I knew I could pipe out swirls of white chocolate fudge as I did when I created my Creme de Menthe Fudge Christmas Trees and that they would look like ghost poo. I could have stopped there and just put the little fudge swirls in a bag, but as I piped out a tray of them I realized they could be even more fun made into Poop Emoji Fudge Ghosts by simply adding some chocolate chips eyes (in two different sizes to make them look a little wonky) and a chocolate wafer smile.

I think they turned out so stinkin' cute! Don't you?

If you are offended by the name and just can't bear to call these homemade Halloween candies, "Poop Emoji Fudge Ghosts," because that just sounds too gross, then just call them "Fudge Ghosts." Either way, your friends and family will love these sweet little Halloween treats.

How to make white chocolate fudge in the microwave.

• Pour either finely chopped white chocolate bars or white chocolate chips into a microwave-safe Bowl.
• Stir in the sweetened condensed milk.
• Heat at 70% powder for 90 seconds then let the bowl rest in the microwave for 3 minutes.
• Remove and stir until most of the white chocolate has melted.
• Return the bowl to the microwave for an additional 30 seconds at 70% power.
• Once again allow the bowl to sit in the microwave for 3 minutes then remove and stir slowly pushing down on the white chocolate, smashing any of the un-melted pieces.
• If at this point all of your white chocolate is not melted then you can return the bowl to the microwave for 10-second increments, repeating the process above.

Why should I let my white chocolate fudge rest in the microwave?

• When you let the white chocolate sit in the microwave the residual heat from the bowl and the melted white chocolate will help to slowly melt the solid pieces of white chocolate.
• It's important that you don't allow your white chocolate to get too hot because if it is overheated it will become very thick and may even burn. By letting it rest you give it time to melt without getting it too hot.

Microwaves do not all have the same wattage. This recipe was developed in a 1000-watt microwave.

My microwave is only 700 watts. Should I adjust this recipe?

• Yes. Lower-wattage microwaves heat more slowly and don't heat as evenly.
  • Use full 100% power for the first 90 seconds then used 70% power after that using the same times listed above.

Can I make this fudge on the stove instead of the microwave?

• Yes, simply pour the white chocolate and sweetened condensed milk into a medium saucepan and set the pan over low heat.
• Heat stirring often until 75% of the white chocolate is melted.
• Remove the pan from the heat and let rest for 3 minutes before stirring until smooth.
• If all the white chocolate does not melt, let it rest for 3 more minutes and stir.
• Only if needed, return to low heat for a minute then repeat the process of resting, and stirring.

What type of white chocolate should I use to make these Poop Emoji Fudge Ghosts?

• Pure white chocolate which contains cocoa butter can be used in bars, blocks, or chips.
• Confectionery coating which is made using vegetable oil, usually palm kernel oil, in place of cocoa butter can also be used to make this fudge.
  • Brands of Confectionery Coating: Nestle Premier White Morsels, Peter's IceCaps, White Candy Melts, Vanilla Almond Bark, Ghirardelli White Melting wafers

When making my fudge I typically use either Nestle Premier white morsels or Peter's ice caps. I personally love the flavor of these two confectionery coatings and think they make very nicely flavored fudge.

What type of chocolate should I use to make the decorations?

• Use one mini chocolate chip and one regular chocolate chip if you want wonky eyes or just use two chocolate chips if you want your eyes to both be the same size.
  • You could also use royal icing (candy) eyes or you could make eyes using modeling chocolate or even chocolate fudge.
  • To make modeling chocolate or chocolate fudge eyes, roll either out on a non-stick silicone mat to about ⅛th inch thickness. Cut out two different size eyes using small round metal or plunger cutters.
• Use one round chocolate wafer or Candy Melts wafer or a circle of modeling chocolate or chocolate fudge for the mouth.
  • To make the mouth simply cut and remove a ⅛th inch strip from the center of a chocolate wafer or a circle of modeling chocolate or chocolate fudge keeping the two curved, smile shape pieces.

How to pipe swirls of white chocolate fudge to make my Poop Emoji Fudge Ghosts

• Once you make the fudge you will need to cover the bowl with plastic wrap and let it rest at room temperature for 20 minutes then stir it every 5-10 minutes, until it thickens to the consistency of frosting.
• How long will this take?
  • It depends on how hot you got the fudge, on the temperature of your room, and on the type of white chocolate you used.
• How will I know when it's ready?
  • Scoop out some fudge and let it sit. If it holds its shape, it's ready! If it flattens out, it needs to cool a bit longer.

 How how to decorate my 💩 Fudge Ghosts

• If using chocolate chips and chocolate wafers, simply press them into the white chocolate fudge ghost immediately after you pipe it out.
• If using modeling chocolate or chocolate fudge decorations and they feel slightly sticky they may just stick if pressed onto the fudge. If they do not stick then lightly brush some clear piping gel or water onto the backside of your eyes and mouth then press onto the fudge.
