Poison apple party dip recipe

A Dark Twist On A Classic Treat

Snow White and the Huntsman hits theaters this weekend, putting a wicked spin on a classic fairy tale. Bring your guests over to the dark side with just a taste of this poison apple party dip. This recipe may seem dangerous, but after just one bite you won't be able to resist a double dip.

Ingredients:

• 2 large apples
• 8 ounces cream cheese
• 1/2 cup brown sugar
• 1/4 cup honey
• 1/2 teaspoon vanilla

Optional items to make it look like a poisonous, shimmering, fairy-tale apple:

• Green food coloring
• 1 egg white
• Red sanding sugar
• 1 midgee-sized Tootsie Roll
• 1 green gummi slice

To make the "poisonous" dip:

Mix cream cheese on medium speed until creamy. Add brown sugar, honey and vanilla. Beat until smooth. Add green food coloring (optional).

To make the shimmering, fairy-tale apple:

To make the apple stem:

Roll a Tootsie Roll between your hands to soften and elongate it.

Roll it around a toothpick and shape it like an apple stem, leaving the bottom 1/2-inch for inserting into the apple top.

Insert another toothpick into the green gummi slice, leaving 1/2-inch for inserting into the apple top. Stick both pieces into the top of the apple.

Allow them to dry on a wire baking rack.

When the apple surfaces are dry, fill the hollow apple bottom with the "poisonous" dip.

Slice up the other apple for dipping.
