  • 1 fresh green pear (makes 2 heads and noses)
  • 2 raisins (eyes)
  • chocolate chips (1 for wart)

directions

  • 1. Cut the pear in half lengthwise and remove the core (a parent's job). Place one pear half on a plate as shown.
  • 2. 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.
  • 3. Attach the eyes and wart by carving small circles in the face to hold them.
  • 4. Cut a grin from the red apple. Carve out an area on the face to hold the grin, and put it in place.
  • 5. 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.
  • 6. 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.

RECIPE SUBMITTED BY

I am the mother of two beautiful boys. I love to bake and cook which has helped me to become very overweight. I have lost 50 pounds this past year and have been learning to cook "lighter". We still enjoy many of the same dishes we used to. However, I have learned portion control and how to make suttle changes to my recipes that don't affect the flavor.
