Monster Fruit Dip with Mouthy Apples are the perfect snack for your kids or a little side dish for a party. Monster Fruit Dip- fun kids snack that's perfect for Halloween from www.thirtyhandmadedays.com

My kids got a kick out of the eyes in this easy to make dip.  Over the next few weeks you’ll see several posts geared towards the cute/fun ideas for Halloween rather than the spooky/scary ones.

Fruit Dip

Is there anything better?  It is so dang good! There are so many great recipes out there but there are a few of my favorites:

  • Citrus Dip
  • Cheesecake Fruit Dip
  • Peach Dip

Fruit Dip Recipe

Gather a few ingredients and you are all set.  Little effort with maximum affect- win/win for everyone! I love pistachio flavored things – this dip has a different taste than your average dip.  I found the edible eyes (Wilton brand) at Joann’s but you can get them here too.

    This looks like a fun treat that I know my kids will eat. And I’m glad it’s not a scary/spooky thing either – I prefer the cute side of Halloween too :)

    Totally off subject, but would you mind sharing the fonts you used for the words Monster fruit dip in the first picture? I really like those……
