fun holiday treat

Published Nov. 9, 2009
Views: 179

We made these tasty treats this weekend with my mother and my 9 yr old niece. Took a minute or two to figure out the best way to hold everything together- we used melted chocolate instead of icing. They are just too cute and would make wonderful afternoon project for those with little hands that need something to do.  You will need Oreos, Whoppers or other malted milk round spherical objects, candy corn, mini peanut butter cups, some chocolate for melting and icing for the eyes and feet (we didn't do the feet and they were just as cute)  Have fun- it can't all be politics all the time!!

LOL!

Those are so cute! I might have to teach that to my niece at Thanksgiving. :D

how cute !!

I swear! Even a reese's can make a candycorn look appetizing.

Yeah Hank...up until now, I thought candy corn was only good for throwing at the cat.

OMG, those are adorable!!! ...even though I hate candy corn and whoppers. haha. I so have to try making those. :)

Now that I'm looking at the pic, I bet you could use chocolate covered peanuts or raisins for the head instead of whoppers! Worth a try!

Sure, anything is worth a try, my thought would be the uniform shape of the head and maybe being a bit too small with a raisin or peanut- play with it and let us know if it works for you. I made this my first batch this weekend and learned a little bit before I try my next batch.....there is no "right" or "wrong" in creativity.

They are cute!

Are those ADA approved? Yikes that's a lot of sugar; but Martha Stewart would be proud!

really cute. Make fun desk-gifts for coworkers. the "glue"ing with melted chocolate sounds interesting... it held ok? any particular kind of chocolate worked for you?
