Strawberry Santas!
Ingredients
- 6 large strawberries
- Cream cheese
- a few tsps of desiccated coconut
- Decoration for eyes and nose- we used dates cut into thin strips for the mouth and rolled into little balls for the eyes. For older kids you could use chocolate chips.
Directions
- Wash and dry your strawberries
- Cut off the green end/stem so you have a flat end
- Then cut off the top third (the pointy end- this will be the "hat")
- Spoon about 1/2 a tsp of the cream cheese on and add your "hat on top" you can dip the hat in cream cheese and then in the coconut for a "pom pom"
- Add your eyes and nose
- Serve immediately or pop in the fridge until everyone is ready to eat
