Chocolate Covered Fruit Crisps Halloween Critters
Ingredients
- Colored Melting Chocolate
- Desired Fruit Crisps Flavor (We used apple, strawberry & banana)
- Eyeball Sprinkles and/or Halloween colored sprinkles
Directions
Step 1 | |
Grab a baking sheet, plate or other flat surface and place a sheet of wax paper on top. This is where the fun will take place. | |
Step 2 | |
Be creative and layout the fruit crisps into different shapes on top of the wax paper. For example, we used apple crisps for bat wings and bananas for a bat body. | |
Step 3 | |
Next, place the melting chocolate into a microwave safe bowl and melt for about 15-20 seconds, then stir. Repeat until the chocolate is almost all melted and stir until any leftover chocolate chunks disappear. **We used a 1/2 cup of melting chocolate. Add more or less depending on your preference. | |
Step 4 | |
Use your hands or a fork and dip the fruit crisps into the chocolate until covered. Place back onto the wax paper. If you need to attach any pieces together just use a dab of chocolate after the other pieces are coated and dried (we did this to make sure the bat wings stayed attached to the bat body). | |
Step 5 | |
The last step is to attach the sprinkle eyes. Place them on the chocolate before it dries or use more chocolate to attach them. | |
Step 6 | |
Repeat these steps until you've made a bunch of cute & creepy critters! | |
Step 7 | |
Let your creations air dry for 20-30 minutes or place in the fridge/freezer for 20 minutes. Gently peel them off the wax paper. Enjoy! |
