Time 40m

Yield 2 doz

Number Of Ingredients 10

24 Oreo Double Stuff cookies
6 ounces semisweet chocolate
1/2 teaspoon butter
1 ounce paraffin wax, chopped (see Notes)
1/2 cup chocolate chips (see Notes)
1/2 cup sliced almonds
1 (3 ounce) package red decorating gel (clear)
1 (3 ounce) package green decorating gel (clear)
24 cherries
1 (8 ounce) package , hershey's kisses

Steps:

  • Carefully twist Oreo cookies apart. Set aside the ones with the cream filling on them; save plain halves for another use. (You could make crumbs for pie crust).
  • In microwave, melt chocolate chip, paraffin and butter; stir until smooth.
  • Holding cherry by stem, dip in melted chocolate, then press onto the bottom of a chocolate kiss.
  • Place cherry and kiss onto the cream filling of the cookie. Let stem extend over the edge.
  • Make ears for your mouse by placing sliced almonds between the cherry and the kiss (before the chocolate sets).
  • Place in refrigerator until chocolate sets.
  • With green decorative gel, pipe holly leaves on white cream of cookie by the mouse.
  • Pipe holly berries between the leaves with the red gel.
  • Pipe eyes on each chocolate kiss.
  • Store in airtight container at room temperature.
  • TIPS:.
  • I used Almond Bark instead of the chocolate chips and eliminated the need for shortening.
  • Maraschino cherries need to have stems and be well-drained.
  • Keep chocolate hot by putting in a bowl over a steaming pan of water.
  • I used a teapot, took the lid off and placed my bowl over it after melting chocolate in microwave.
  • You can use a clean eyebrow tweezer or something else to grasp the cherries by the stems to dunk in chocolate.
  • Make extras because everyone at your party will want one to take home to show around and to use as a pattern to make their own!

Categories     Cookies

Time 30m

Number Of Ingredients 6

30 oreo cookies (halved)
30 large maraschino cherries (with stems)
2 c semi-sweet chocolate chips (melted)
30 hershey's chocolate kisses
30 almond halves
red decorating gel

Steps:

  • 1. Take apart the Oreo Cookies and keep only the side with the white cream ( I dipped a Ritz in white chocolate) Unwrap chocolate kisses and set aside.Drain cherries on paper towel and dry.
  • 2. Melt chocolate until smooth. Dip a cherry in chocolate until coated and set on the Oreo with the stem going side ways(it's the body and tail).Place a chocolate kiss(with a small dab of chocolate)pointed side out on the oposite side of the cherry (it's the nose) Place two almond halves on top of the cherry (that's the ears)Put two red dots for the eyes.

Tips:

- Use softened butter instead of melted butter to ensure a light and chewy texture. - To achieve the perfect blend of flavors, chill the dough for at least 30 minutes before baking. - For a more intense chocolate flavor, use dark chocolate chips or cocoa powder. - Add some chopped nuts, dried fruits, or even toffee bits for an extra crunch and flavor. - Bake the cookies until the edges are golden brown and the centers are set, but still slightly soft. - Allow the cookies to cool completely on a wire rack to prevent them from becoming soggy.
