Ingredients

Directions

  1. Rinse two red apples thoroughly, pat them dry with a towel, then slice each into thick rounds with a chef's knife. Carefully remove any seeds from each slice.
  2. Lightly coat the cut surfaces with lemon juice using a brush to prevent browning.
  3. Using a small spreader, apply a layer of peanut butter to one side of every apple slice.
  4. Insert four candy corn pieces along the top curve of each slice to resemble turkey tail feathers.
  5. Place a single mini marshmallow in the center for the face, then add two chocolate chips as eyes by pressing them into the marshmallow.
  6. Arrange the finished snacks on a serving platter and serve immediately.
