As children we are taught NOT to play with out food… but it’s hard not to, with these Nutter Butter Chicks! I love Nutter Butter Cookies as is, but these are just down right CUTE!
Bag them up and finish them with a fun Easter ribbon for a great GIFT idea. These make for a Fun Easter Treat worthy of any basket! Enjoy!
INGREDIENTS
- 12 Nutter Butter cookies
- 1/2 cup Yellow Candy Melting Chips
- 3-4 Orange Starburst
- 24 Mini Chocolate Chips
DIRECTIONS
- Cut Starburst into 3 rectangular strips (1/4″ x 3/4″)
- Cut each of those in half, creating 6 – 1/4″ x 3/8″ rectangles.
- Now cut each of those diagonally creating 12 triangles for beaks.
- Repeat this process on the other 2 Starbursts to create 24 triangles that you will make 2 cuts in each and separate to make toes on the feet.
- Set beaks and feet aside.
- Heat Yellow Candy Chips by microwaving for 30 seconds stirring and repeating until melted. Allow to cool for 2-3 minutes.
- Lay cookie in melted candy and spoon mixture over cookie to coat completely.
- Carefully remove from candy so the cookie doesn’t come apart, and let excess candy drip off.
- Lay cookie on wax paper.
- Place mini chocolate chips for eyes.
- Place beaks and feet.
- Refrigerate to set chocolate.
