Ingredients
4 fresh kiwis
8 small pretzel sticks
3 tablespoons chocolate chips
16 candy eyes
Instructions
Cut each kiwi in half lengthwise. Using a small, sharp knife, cut about two-thirds of the skin off each half, leaving skin around the top for the hair. Trim the hairline into a jagged shape.
Break 1/2-inch end pieces off the pretzel sticks and press them into the sides of the kiwis to create bolts.
Place the chocolate chips in a small microwave-safe bowl and microwave until melted, stirring until smooth.
Using a toothpick or skewer, dab a little melted chocolate onto the backs of the candy eyes and attach two eyes to each kiwi. Use the remaining melted chocolate to draw a mouth and scar on each one.
Serve immediately, or refrigerate until the chocolate has hardened.
Notes
Choose firm, ripe kiwis for easier cutting and decorating.
Melt the chocolate in short microwave intervals to prevent scorching.
Chill briefly before serving if you want the chocolate decorations to set firmly.
