    Notes

    For a fun twist, add some garlic powder or herbs to the dough for extra flavor.
    Having the oven preheated ensures even cooking, so timing is key.
    If you're short on time, store-bought dough can work too.
    Also, experiment with different sizes of ghost shapes to see what you like best! 🎉
