Creep out your Halloween guest! it's similar to the thai carving. Older kids can do this too. I added the Kool Aid coz the recipe needed more than one ingredient so it's totally optional. Can be sprinkled on the brain on the red parts to highlight .

1 brain (change servings and units)

Ingredients

Directions

  1. 1
    Use a vegetable peeler to remove the entire green rind, exposing the inner white rind.
  2. 2
    Slice off the bottom of the melon to create a flat base that will keep it from rolling. With a toothpick, outline squiggly furrows that resemble the folded surface of a brain.
  3. 3
    Finally, carve narrow channels along the tracings with a sharp paring knife to expose the pink fruit beneath the rind.
