- Microwave in 30-second intervals, stirring each time, until melted and smooth.
- Dip each apple into the melted white candy coating, swirling to coat evenly. Let excess drip off.

- Use the melted semi-sweet or dark chocolate to draw Jack Skellington’s face on each apple. I like to place this in a piping bag and cut out the tip to make it easier to draw.
- Draw two large eyes, small nostrils, and a stitched smile.
- Allow the melted chocolate to set completely, about 15-20 minutes.
