Chocolate Acorns

Chocolate Acorns

Ingredients

• 36 whole Hersey's Chocolate Kisses
• 36 whole Bite Size Nutter Butter Cookies
• ¾ cups Semi-Sweet Chocolate Chips

Preparation Instructions

1. Unwrap the Hersey Kisses and set aside.
2. In a small bowl, melt 1/2 cup of the chocolate chips in the microwave for 2 minutes on 50% power. Stir until smooth.
3. Using the end of a knife, dab the melted chocolate onto the top of each Nutter Butter. Push the flat bottom of the Kiss into the chocolate and onto the cookie. Place it (cookie side down) onto a baking sheet to harden. Repeat with remaining Kisses.
4. When finished “gluing” the Kisses and cookies together, use the remaining melted chocolate, in the same process as above, to stick the remaining chocolate chips onto the top of the acorns to create stems (see photo).
5. Pop one in your mouth and ENJOY!!!

Others have suggested using peanut butter for the "glue" instead of melting chocolate chips. Someone said these are really good, especially if using the caramel kisses.

Peanut Butter Christmas Trees

Peanut Butter Christmas Trees

Each tree requires … 2 miniature PB cups, 1 snack size PB cup & 1 chocolate kiss

peanut butter cups (snack & miniature sizes)
chocolate kisses
white chocolate (or candy melts)
white non-pariels


Melt the white chocolate (this will be the “glue” that holds each layer together) and put it in a squeeze bottle or ziptop bag with a tiny cut off corner.

Set up an assembly line …

• Tree trunk – upside down miniature PB cup – white chocolate “glue”
• 1st layer – upside down snack size PB cup – drizzle white chocolate around the edges & sprinkle with non-pariels
• 2nd layer – upside down miniature PB cup – repeat drizzle & sprinkle
• 3rd layer – chocolate kiss – repeat drizzle & sprinkle
