I’m kind of in love with the magazine Family Fun. For years it’s been delivered to my door and I love looking through all the crafts and recipes. As my kids get older I’m finding most of the crafts are for younger kids, but the recipes? I don’t care how old my kids are. Fun food is FUN food!
In the February/March issue they had these adorable Lucky Charmer Cookies. I figured my daughter would love to make these. Because come on, aren’t they cute?!?!
I changed it up just a bit. I didn’t have orange sprinkles so I used orange sanding sugar. Sprinkles probably would have been better but I didn’t feel like driving 35 minutes to the store. And next time? I’ll use melted white chocolate instead of melted frosting.
Aren’t they perfect for St. Patrick’s Day?
Ingredients
- Milano Cookies
- White Chocolate Chips
- Orange Sprinkles
- Candy eyes
- Green Gumdrops
- Green Fruit Slice
- Chocolate Sprinkles
Instructions
- Spread a thin layer of melted white chocolate along the edges of the cookie to make the beard. Cover with orange sprinkles.
- To make each hat, cut off the bottom of a green gumdrop (this will allow it to stick to the hat's "brim"), then cut in half vertically and stick it onto a green fruit slice.
- Use melted white chocolate to attach the hat to the top of each cookie.
- Attach candy eyes with white chocolate and a chocolate sprinkle for the smile. (You can also use an edible marker.)
- Enjoy!
