Let’s get creepy in the kitchen…
Ingredients:
- 2 large apples (red or green)
- Peanut butter or any nut/seed butter (or sunflower butter for allergies)
- Mini marshmallows or white chocolate chips (for teeth)
- Chocolate chips or raisins (for eyes)
- Optional: candy eyeballs or colored sprinkles for extra spooky fun
Instructions:
- Prepare the apples: Wash and core the apples. Cut them into thick slices (about 1/2 inch thick).
- Make the “mouth”: Spread peanut butter on one side of an apple slice.
- Add “teeth”: Press mini marshmallows or white chocolate chips along the edge of the peanut butter to look like teeth.
- Make the eyes: Use a little peanut butter to stick two chocolate chips or raisins on another apple slice for eyes.
- Assemble the monster: Place the “eye” slice on top of the “mouth” slice, peanut butter side down, to create a monster mouth with eyes peeking out.
- Serve & enjoy!
You can make a whole bunch for a spooky Halloween snack platter!
