Ghostly Pears - The Perfect Halloween Treat

Looking for a spooky yet healthy treat this Halloween? These ghostly pears are not only delicious but also make for a fun and festive addition to any Halloween party spread.

Ingredients for Two Ghostly Pears:

2 organic pears
3.5 ounces (100g) white chocolate
Edible colored markers or icing pens
Wooden skewers for support

How to Make Ghostly Pears:

Preparing the Pears:

Remove the stems from the pears and trim the bottoms slightly. It's okay if the pears don't stand perfectly straight.
Carefully insert wooden skewers into the pears to ensure they hold well.

Melting the Chocolate:

Break the white chocolate into small pieces to ensure it melts smoothly in a double boiler.

Decorating:

Once the chocolate is completely melted, pour over the pears or brush it on using a pastry brush.
For an added pop of color, sprinkle some festive jimmies or nonpareils onto the pears before the chocolate sets.
Chill the pears in the refrigerator until the chocolate has hardened.

The Finishing Touch:

After chilling, retrieve the Ghostly Pears and use the edible markers to draw spooky ghost faces on them.

Serving Suggestion:

Ghostly Pears make a fantastic centerpiece for your Halloween spread. Pair them with other Halloween Treats to offer a selection that's both spooky and scrumptious.

Tip: To amp up the mood, consider having a small bowl of dark chocolate sauce on hand for guests to dip their Ghostly Pears into!
