Ingredients

  • 12 round sugar cookies
  • 12 mini vanilla wafers
  • 12 orange jimmies picked out of a rainbow container
  • Black round sprinkles *
  • almond bark or white chocolate melted OR Canned vanilla frosting *

Instructions

  • 1. Start by using a bit of melted chocolate or frosting to secure the mini vanilla wafer onto your sugar cookie. You don’t want it in the middle, so aim for the top half of your cookie.
  • 2. Next you are going to take a big spoonful of chocolate (or heated frosting, see note) and drop it right onto the middle of your cookie. Holding the cookie in your hand, rotate it to get the chocolate to drip over the edges. The other option is to use the back of a spoon to spread it across the top of the cookie.
  • 3. Immediately place an orange jimmy onto the face portion of your cookie. Allow the chocolate to set.
  • 4. Use the black icing to create the eyes, mouth, and buttons. Allow to set and enjoy!

Notes

* I found black sprinkles in a Halloween sprinkle collection
* We have made these cookies with melted chocolate as well as canned frosting. If opting for the frosting, spoon a small amount into a heat safe bowl. Microwave 10-20 seconds until liquid. proceed with decorating.
