For the sandwich filling:
1/4 cup peanut butter
2 tablespoons soft-style cream cheese
2 tablespoons milk
2 tablespoons crushed pineapple, undrained
1 tablespoon shredded carrot
2 tablespoons banana, chopped
STEP 1
In a small bowl combine the peanut butter, cream cheese, and milk. Stir until it is well mixed.
Stir in pineapple, carrot, and banana.
Makes about 1/2 cup of filling or enough for 2 sandwiches.
STEP 2
Lay a slice of bread on a cutting board. Press the can into the corner of 1 slice of bread. Be sure to save the bread crusts. Repeat with remaining bread.
STEP 3
Spread the sandwich filling on 2 of the bread circles. Top with the 2 remaining circles.
To make ears, use the pieces of bread crusts.
Make eyes, noses, and mouths with raisins. To make them stick to the bread, put a little sandwich filling on the raisins. Makes 2 monkey faces.
