- Ready In:
- 24hrs 10mins
- Ingredients:
- 3
- Serves:
-
16
ingredients
- 16 chocolate wafer cookies (such as Nabisco Famous Chocolate Wafers)
- 1 (4 1/4 ounce) container orange frosting, tube with piping tips (I bought Betty Crocker be careful not to get the gel frosting)
- 16 miniature peanut butter cups
directions
- Place cookies on work surface; squeeze a dime size dot of frosting in the center of each cookie.
- Unwrap and invert peanut butter cups on frosting, press down gently.
- Let dry overnight or at least 10 - 15 minutes until frosting is set. If drying overnight please store in an airtight container so the cookies do not get soggy.
- Using round piping tip or writing tip, (if you don't have tips you can make your own frosting, put it in a ziplock sandwich bag and just cut the corner of the bag) pipe a hat band (single line) with frosting around the peanut butter cup and a square buckle.
- Let frosting set before storing.
- My son insists we should use yellow frosting so it would be correct but I think the orange that the directions call for looks nicer than yellow.

I made these for my daughters kindergarten Thanksgiving "feast". They turned out to cute! I used caramel cups for personal taste prefrence and then I melted white chocolate bark and used a cheap mustard bottle (the unused kind you can purchase for picnicks) and used it instead of orange frosting, Yummy and cute and the kids went nuts for them. Thanks for the great idea!

Made these for our son to take to a party tonight. I am not very creative, I had trouble getting a thin line but then took a different frosting nozzle and made cute orange things on the hat.. These are great for the holiday's. I used thin mints with the reese's.. Thanks for sharing such a cute idea. :)
