This ghoulish girl is quite a sight, with her shocking orange hair. Her hat's a cone, her mouth an apple, her head is half a pear!
Ingredients
- Sharp knife
- Fresh green pear (makes 2 heads and noses)
- 2 raisins (eyes)
- 1 chocolate chip (wart)
- Red apple (mouth)
- Canned chocolate frosting
- Oreo ice-cream cone (hat)
- Large, soft chocolate cookie (hat); we used an Archway Dutch Cocoa Cookie
- Carrot (hair) and grater
Instructions
- Cut the pear in half lengthwise and remove the core (a parent's job). Place one pear half on a plate as shown.
- Slice a piece off the top of the pear, cutting away from the forehead at an angle. Shape that piece into a nose; carve a notch into the witch's face to hold it, and set it in place.
- Attach the eyes and wart by carving small circles in the face to hold them.
- Cut a grin from the red apple. Carve out an area on the face to hold the grin, and put it in place.
- To make the hat, use frosting to glue the cone to the cookie. Let the frosting harden a bit, then place the hat on the head.
- Grate lengths of carrot hair and tuck them underneath the hat. Tip: If your child is too young to handle a knife, cut the nose and mouth and have him assemble the face with frosting.
