Skip the candy, here is a fun and delicious recipe to celebrate a healthier Halloween! Recipe developed by the California Raisin Marketing Board. Ingredients:
1/2 cup california raisins |
1/3 cup almond butter |
3 tablespoons honey |
3 tablespoons unsweetened cocoa powder |
1 3/4 cups brown crispy rice cereal |
1 ounce semisweet chocolate, melted |
96 small black licorice strings |
2 tablespoons powdered sugar |
24 small candies, for eyes |
Directions:
1. Place raisins, almond or peanut butter, honey and cocoa powder in a food processor and process until a thick paste forms. Transfer to a large bowl and stir in cereal, using your hands to mix in completely. Press mixture into 12 balls, then press lightly onto a foil or wax paper lined baking sheet. Spread a small amount of melted chocolate on the bottom of each and slide 8 small pieces of licorice under each to form the spider legs; refrigerate until firm. Stir a few drops of water into powdered sugar to make a thick mixture to “glue” eyes onto spiders.
