Acorn treats

These are simple & easy to whip up.

You will need:

•      Mini nutter butter cookies
•      Hershey kisses
•      Mini chocolate chips (not pictured)
•      melted chocolate for the "glue"

Melt your chocolate---I used a small amount of chocolate chips with a little bit of shortening.
Dip the Hershey kiss into the chocolate and place it onto the nutter butter cookie.

Lay flat on wax paper.

Allow to harden.

 Now it is time to add the other side of the acorn.

Adding a teeny tiny mini chocolate chip is harder than it looks....

I used this straw...dipped it into the chocolate and drizzled onto the other side of the cookie

...and then placed the teeny tiny mini chocolate chip on top.

ACORNS

I will wrap them up tomorrow and present to the girls teachers, teacher assistants & bus drivers.

Not that you really need instructions, they are pretty easy to figure out by looking at them, but I personally ALWAYS like instructions.

Ingredients:

Mini Nutter Butter cookies

A bag of Hershey kisses

Mini chocolate chips

Additional chocolate for dipping

Directions:

Melt your chocolate in a bowl.

Dip the Hershey kiss in the chocolate and place on the nutter butter cookie.

Lay on wax paper to harden.

When dry dip your mini chocolate chip in the melted chocolate and place on the other side of the cookie (or use a straw or toothpick like I did to drizzle the chocolate)

AND here is a funny................


I made these a few years ago.

ONCE

I won't attempt them again
There are some things that look easy and simple, but when you go to actually make it - IT ISN'T.

The hardest part was getting the candy corn to stick in the Oreo.  Or should I say the hardest part was getting the Oreo to stay closed.

And look at that poor turkey face.  He looks like he got too close to a fire.

These acorns are much prettier - those turkeys scare me every time I look at that picture.
