Ingredients
Scale
- 10 Nutter Butters
- 6 ounces brown chocolate melts
- 1 ounce yellow chocolate melts
- 1 ounce white chocolate melts
- Mini vanilla cookie sandwiches
- Sliced almonds
Instructions
- Place brown candy melts in a microwave-safe bowl. Heat in 15–30 second intervals, stirring between each, until smooth.
- Dip each Nutter Butter into the melted chocolate, covering completely. Lift with a fork, let the excess drip off, then place on parchment paper. Repeat with all cookies. Chill in the freezer for 5 minutes to set. Reserve a little melted chocolate in a piping bag.
- Separate vanilla sandwich cookies and discard the filling. Melt white candy melts and transfer to a piping bag. Pipe small white circles onto the flat side of each cookie half. Let dry for 3 minutes. Pipe smaller brown circles on top to create pupils. Repeat until you have enough eyes.
- Use a dab of melted brown chocolate to stick two eyes onto each coated cookie. Hold in place for a few seconds.
- Melt yellow candy melts and pipe a small triangle under the eyes for the beak. Add a small dot of chocolate on each side of the cookie, then press on a sliced almond for wings.
- Let decorated owls dry for about 3 minutes, then serve and enjoy!
Notes
- Add 1 tsp coconut oil to melted chocolate for a smoother coating.
- Use candy eyes instead of mini cookies for a shortcut
- Store in an airtight container at room temperature for up to 5 days
