Just made my fist batch and I have some very helpful tips:After you have made the dough, which will be sticky, (I added a few more cookies shells, not the cream) place it in the fridge or freezer for a few minutes so as not to be too sticky to shape. Then take out and shape. It helps if you take out only a bit at a time.Second, this makes it a whole lot easier, after you have shaped all the ghosts place them in the freezer to harden, (30 minutes or so). When they are ready remove only a few at a time to coat with white chocolate. I use a wooden skewer with a sharp point on one end. I insert the point into the bottom of the chocolate ghost, dip it into the chocolate, remove and hold it for a minute. Because the ghost has been frozen the white chocolate will harden quickly, which will make it easier to remove from the skewer w/o messing up the white chocolate. You can either remove with your clean fingers or use a small tool that has a circle on one end that is used for dipping things into chocolate. You run it up under the skewer and remove ghost to waxed paper or sprayed foil.Third, I use the point on the skewer to make the eyes and mouths, if wanted.Fourth, I then wipe clean with a stiff brush or basting brush.

I didn't get the right number of ghosts either, so I made a double batch. Be sure to use a fairly low power on the microwave when melting the white chocolate, or it will scorch.

I just made these with my son. We did not get 26 ghosts out of the recipe - it was more like 16. Not sure what happened.
