Equipment
- small microwave safe mixing bowl
- piping bag with small or no tip
Ingredients
- 12 Nutter Butter cookies
- 108 candy corns
- 1/2 cup red candy melts
- 12 yellow candy melt
- 24 orange round sprinkle shapes
- 24 candy eyeballs
Instructions
- In a small microwave safe mixing bowl, melt the red candy melts in the microwave. Melt in 30 second intervals at 50% power. Stir between each interval. This will take 4-5 minutes.
- Put the melted candy melts in a piping bag and use the candy melts to attach 9 candy corns to the outside edge of one side of the cookie. You want the narrow end of the candy corn to be facing inward. Allow to set for 3 minutes.
- Flip the cookie over and using the melted candy, attach two eyes. Use the red melted candy to create a little “wattle” leading from the eyes and immediately press 2 orange round sprinkles to create a little beak. Allow the face to set for 3 minutes.
- Place a dollop of the red melted candy at the base of the cookie and press one of the yellow candy melts into it to create a base. This will allow the cookie to stand upright.
- Allow to set for 5 minutes.
