slices
of baguette
2
tablespoons
butter
3
white cheddar slices
18
black sesame seeds
3
grapes
oblong
medium round cookie cutter
small round cookie cutter

Instructions
Slice the baguette.
Heat a pan on medium-high.
Add three tablespoons of butter to the pan.
Place the baguette slices in the hot pan and brown on both sides until golden. It will take about two minutes per side (you can add extra butter when it is time to flip the crostini).
Shape the bear’s body with the
medium round cookie cutter
using cheddar slices.
Make the cheddar face with the
small round cutter
and the mouth with the
mini-shaped cutter
.
For the ears, use the
petal-shaped cutter
.
Shape the cheddar hands and feet with the metal straw (you can remove them from the straw using a skewer).
Arrange the elements for the bear on top of the crostini.
Top with the sesame seed eyes and nose.
Cut the oblong grapes at a slant and halve each half symmetrically.
Match the opposite halves to make two hearts and place one on each bear.
Serve.

Notes
I’ve listed a few cookie cutters to shape the different parts of the bear, but you can also use various-sized glasses, icing tips, straws, etc.
