Calories 151.5 kcal
1 Small sharp knife
1 Double boiler
1 Parchment paper
- 6 tangerines
- 1 green apple
- 3.5 ounces white chocolate
- 4-5 drops edible green food coloring
Melt the Chocolate:
Break the white chocolate into smaller pieces for easier melting.
Melt the chocolate over a double boiler, stirring occasionally until smooth.
Once melted, mix in a few drops of edible green food coloring. If the chocolate thickens slightly from the moisture in the food coloring, this can actually help when forming the “grass” bases.
Form the Chocolate Grass:
On parchment paper, create small chocolate “puddles” to represent grass.
Carefully place a tangerine on each chocolate puddle.
Prepare the Apple Stems:
While the chocolate sets, wash and dry the green apple.
Cut the apple peel into thin strips or shapes to serve as the pumpkin stems.
