2. Croissant Crabs

You'll Need (for 2):

Here's How:

Cut off the end points of the 2 croissants. Cut both strawberries in half, cut a small wedge out of the pointed side, and place them facedown at the ends of the croissants to make the claws. Peel the clementines and place 3 slices on each side the 2 croissants to make the legs, then cut 2 small mouths out of a marshmallow and stick them onto the croissants. Cut 2 green grapes in half and insert a toothpick into each half. Slice the 2 red grapes thinly at the ends and stick them to the exposed part of the green grapes to make the eyes. Insert the toothpicks into the top of the croissants.

Preheat the oven to 350°F and grease a 9-inch semicircular cake pan. Beat the butter and sugar until light and fluffy. Continue beating and gradually add in the eggs.
