Now, LET’S MAKE ACORN COOKIES!

Here are the ingredients you’ll need to make this fluffy pumpkin creation.

Ingredients:

Nutter Butter Cookies
Chocolate candy melts or chocolate chips
Sprinkles
Pretzel sticks

Here’s what you do:
-Start by cutting the Nutter Butter cookies in half.
-Then cut the pretzel sticks into little pieces for the stems.
-Melt your chocolate candy melts or chocolate chips in the microwave until smooth, stirring as you go.
-Dip the cut half of the cookie into the melted chocolate to form the “cap” of the acorn. Before it hardens, dip the cookie into the sprinkles of your choice.
-Use a bit more chocolate on the pretzel stick to adhere the “stem” to the acorn.
-That’s it! Once you’re done with your acorns, place them in the fridge to help speed up the setting time.
Enjoy!

That’s it! Now, wasn’t that simple?!
