It is Monday night and I have one more quick and easy Halloween idea for you

First let me share a revelation that I had today … blogging has turned me into a mean person dictator of the kitchen woman who says “no”  … a lot … for example …

• Don’t you dare touch those Nutter Butters, they’re for a blog project!
• No … you cannot eat the M&M’s!
• Leave those cookies alone!  I need to take photos!

I have now changed my tune, a little …

• You can have a cookie now … if you tell me that they look like bats
• Sorry, you cannot have the M&M’s … I still need them for a Thanksgiving project 

Anyway, this is what you will need … Nutter Butter cookies, M&M’s, dark chocolate (or candy melts), edible confetti, wax paper and a toothpick …

Here are the easy peasy directions (as shown in the photo above) …

• Dip the cookie in melted chocolate to create wings and place on wax paper
• Use a toothpick to “drag” chocolate to create points on wings
• Place an M&M (head) on the melted chocolate
• Use the toothpick with melted chocolate to create ears, attach confetti (eyes) and then add a dot of chocolate on the eyes

P.S.  I would plan on using about one pound of chocolate per bag of cookies.

I have a very opinionated family …

• Son #2 says that they don’t look like bats
• Son #3 says they look like bats (he is the smart one)
• The Peanut Butter Man (hubby) says he needs to eat more cookies before he can give an opinion.  Does he actually think that I would fall for that?

What do you think … do they look like bats?  Sorry to put you in the middle of a family argument!
