Owl strawberries:

3. Fill the hollowed out strawberries with your cream cheese mixture.
4. Use Wilton large candy eyes for the eyes and a Starburst mini, cut into quarters, for the nose. You can use the cream cheese to stick them on if you are serving them that day.
Krispy Bird Nests (makes 15 nests):
1 1/2 Tbsp butter
1/2 package (2 cups) mini marshmallows
2 cups Rice Krispies
1 cup coconut
1. In a saucepan, melt butter over low heat. Add marshmallows and stir until completely melted. Remove from heat.
2. Add Rice Krispies and coconut and stir until completely combined.
3. Use cooking spray to spray a cupcake pan.
4. Working quickly, take a small handful of mixture and press into cupcake tin, forming a cupped nest. Continue working until all 15 nests are created. Cool.
Avoid the cream cheese to ooze out of the bottom or stick to the nests, please dip the bottom in brown sugar.
