In a microwave-safe bowl, combine 8 ounces of white chocolate and 1 tablespoon of vegetable shortening. Melt in microwave at 50% power for 30 seconds, stirring after each interval until smooth (about 1-2 minutes).

Dip the bottom of one large marshmallow into the melted white chocolate and place it on a lined baking sheet to anchor it as the base.

Dip the bottoms of two more large marshmallows in the chocolate and stack them on top of the base, using chocolate as glue. Refrigerate for 10 minutes to set.

Coat the entire marshmallow structure in remaining melted white chocolate, ensuring an even layer.

While the coating is still wet, gently press two candy eyes onto the front for a playful look.

Let the figures firm up for 20-30 minutes at room temperature. Dust with powdered sugar and use a black edible marker to add facial features.

Serve at Halloween parties or movie nights, and enjoy!
