Ingredients Method

Ingredients
  

  • 2 large apples; 4 ounces softened block cream cheese; 1 tablespoon powdered sugar; ¼ teaspoon cinnamon; ¼ teaspoon vanilla; 24 mini pretzel twists plus extras; 24 mini chocolate chips; 12 small raspberries. Optional: 1 teaspoon lemon juice mixed with 1 tablespoon water.

Method
 

  1. Mix the cream cheese, powdered sugar, cinnamon, and vanilla until smooth.
  2. Core the apples and cut each into six broad wedges. Trim the skin side slightly if needed to help each wedge sit steadily.
  3. Brush lightly with the optional lemon mixture and blot dry.
  4. Spread about 2 teaspoons of filling on one broad cut face of each wedge.
  5. Decorate each with two pretzel antlers, two chocolate chip eyes, and one raspberry nose.
  6. Serve promptly, or refrigerate briefly and add the pretzels just before serving.
