Time 25m

Yield 16 Easter Chicks, 16 serving(s)

Number Of Ingredients 6

Ingredients

16 Nutter Butter sandwich cookies
12 ounces yellow candy melts or 12 ounces white chocolate candy melts, with
yellow food coloring (must be an oil-based coloring)
8 orange Tic Tac mints (beak)
black decorating gel (eyes) or icing (eyes)
wax paper

Steps:

Cut the Tic Tacs in half to form the chick's beak. Set aside.
Melt the candy coating as directed on the package. I use the microwave. If using white candy melts, add enough yellow food coloring to get a bright yellow tint.
Dip the Nutter Butter cookies in the melted candy coating, shake off the excess, then lay on the wax paper. Allow the coating to harden, about 10-20 minutes.
Pipe eyes on each chick. Add eyebrows or eye lashes if you like -- I think it gives them more personality.
Beak: Attach the beak using a bit of melted candy coating.

Time 30m

Yield 12

Number Of Ingredients 9

Ingredients

12 hard-boiled eggs, peeled
2 tablespoons mayonnaise
1 ½ tablespoons yellow mustard
1 dill pickle, finely chopped
1 tablespoon prepared horseradish, or to taste
1 teaspoon pickle juice
salt and ground black pepper to taste
1 carrot, cut into rounds
12 slices canned black olives, or as needed

Steps:

Slice through the top 1/3 of each egg, ensuring some of the yolk is included in the slice. Carefully remove the egg yolk from the bottom portion of the egg using a spoon and transfer to a bowl.
Mix egg yolks, mayonnaise, mustard, pickle, horseradish, pickle juice, salt, and pepper together in a bowl. Fill a piping bag or a plastic bag with a corner snipped with the egg yolk mixture. Pipe egg yolk mixture into the hollowed egg whites creating the 'chick', ensuring there is enough filling to add 'eyes' and a 'beak.'
Slice small wedges out of the carrot rounds creating 12 'beaks'. Add a 'beak' to each 'chick'.
Slice olive pieces into small squares to be used as 'eyes.' Add 2 'eyes' to each 'chick.' Place the egg tops onto each 'chick' to look like a chick peaking out of the egg.

Tips:

To make sure your bunnies and chicks are cooked evenly, make sure the oven temperature is accurate. Use an oven thermometer to check the temperature before baking.
Don't overmix the dough. Overmixing will make the dough tough. Mix just until the ingredients are combined.
Let the dough rise in a warm place. This will help the dough to double in size and become light and fluffy.
Use a sharp knife to cut the dough. This will help to prevent the dough from tearing.
Bake the bunnies and chicks until they are golden brown. This will ensure that they are cooked through.
Let the bunnies and chicks cool completely before icing them. This will help to prevent the icing from melting.

Conclusion:

These Easter bunnies and chicks are a fun and easy way to celebrate the holiday. They are perfect for a festive breakfast or brunch, or as a sweet treat for the kids. With a little planning and effort, you can create these adorable treats that are sure to be a hit with everyone. So put on your apron and start baking!
