prep: 45 minutes
Yield: About 20
Description: These are cute, tasty, and even better; kid friendly.I like how there is little cooking and the results are always adorable. Package these in a cellophane bag with a pretty ribbon and you have a quick inexpensive gift for family and friends.
Ingredients:
Nutter Butter cookies
White candy chocolate
M&M candies
Orange Tic-Tacs, cut in half
Black decorator icing
Directions:
1. Line a baking sheet with wax paper; set aside.
2. In a medium bowl,over a double boiler, melt the white chocolate until smooth and shiny.
3. Working one at a time, dip a Nutter Butter cookie into the melted coating and flip it over to coat completely. Remove and let any excess drip off then place on the wax paper-lined baking sheet.
4. Repeat with the remaining Nutter Butter cookies.
5. Place the baking sheet into the refrigerator for at least 30 minutes so the coating can set.
6..Attach a small decorating tip to a pastry bag and fill with black icing (or buy a pre-made black one).
7. Dab a small amount on one side of an M&M and place on the coated cookie. Repeat with another just below to make the two “buttons”.
8.. Dab another small amount on the bottom of half of a Tic Tac and affix to the center of the top of the cookie for the nose. Again, repeat.
9. Next squeeze out small dots for the eyes and the mouth. And you are done!
