Crescent Meatball Ghost Pops: Easy Halloween Dinner

These spooky Crescent Meatball Ghost Pops were inspired by those little Halloween ghosts made by wrapping a tissue around a lollipop.   My kids had so much fun with these!  Food on a stick is very amusing!  They are super easy, just skewer a meatball with a pop stick, wrap a square of crescent dough around it, brush on some egg wash and press in some olive slice eyes.

Instructions

1. Preheat oven to 375 degrees.  Spray or grease a large baking sheet (approx. 18x13"). 
2. Roll out crescent dough on a clean flat surface.  Cut the dough into 6 equal squares with a pizza cutter.
3. Place one square on the baking sheet.
4. Insert stick halfway into meatball and lay the meatball in the center of the dough square.  The stick should be lined up with a corner of the dough.
5. Fold the top corner of the dough down to the bottom stick end, wrap each of the side corners over to the opposite side, almost like wrapping a scarf.
6. Pinch around the "neck."
7. Repeat with the other 5 squares.
8. In a small bowl, beat together the egg and the water.
9. Brush the ghosts with the egg wash and press on the olive slice "eyes."
10. Bake for about 15-20 minutes or until golden brown.  Serve with marinara sauce.

Recipe Notes

Notes:

-If you can't find the crescent sheet dough, just use the regular crescent dough and pinch together the perforations. 

-If using frozen meatballs, thaw them first. 

-I used Wilton Cookie Pop Sticks (8-inch), you could alternatively use bamboo skewers w/ the sharp point snipped off or popsicle sticks

-I used a shiny silver baking sheet, if using a dark, non-stick variety, adjust the oven temperature to 350 degrees.
