NUTTER BUTTER BABIES - BABY SHOWER RECIPE - (4.7/5)

Steps:
- *Set note at end before beginning. In a small bowl, microwave about 1/2 cup of a desired color of candy melts just until melted as directed on package, stirring in between. Don't overheat or the candy will separate. Working on 2-3 cookies at a time, dip the cookies into the melted candy, then place on a wax paper lined cookie sheet. (Candy can be reheated slightly as needed). Immediately, press an unmelted white (or chocolate) candy melt onto the top section of the cookie. This will be the baby's face. Set aside to harden. (I placed some of the white candies flat side up, and some pointy side up using the little center tip as the nose). When the coating has hardened, squirt a little of the decorating gel onto a saucer or wax paper and, using the artist brush, draw the baby's eyes, nose, and mouth on the white (or chocolate) candy melt. (I used a toothpick to help). I went a little crazy on a few adding hair and nostrils!! :) Allow time for cookies to set before serving. (Note- The decorating gel does not set so the cookies can't be stacked on top of each other). ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~ *NOTE: After doing a few as directed above, I found it easier to paint the baby faces on all the white and chocolate candies first. Then carefully placing one on the cookies as they were dipped, working on 2-3 cookies at a time so the melting candy doesn't harden too quickly. Also, I only dipped the front sides of the cookies. It makes them less sweet and also extends the melted candy so more cookies can be dipped.
NUTTER BUTTER BABIES (BABY SHOWER)
Next time you throw a baby shower, you have to make these adorable little gems. I made them in pink and blue, but neutral colors like green and yellow would work.

Steps:
- In a small dish, microwave (50% power) the pink candy melts. Don't over cook. If you do, add a small bit of vegetable shortening.
- Pink Babies: Dip 8 Nutter Butter cookies into the pink candy, the place on wax paper to set up. Before the candy shell hardens, press a round white candy melt into the upper section of the cookie, creating the baby's face. Allow to harden.
- Blue Babies: Repeat the above directions. Allow to harden.
- When the candy coating has hardened, squirt a little bit of black decorating gel onto the wax paper. Using a fine-tipped paint brush, draw the baby's eyes, nose, and mouth on the white candy melt. You can also create those features by piping icing, but I find it easier to draw them.
- Allow to harden, then serve.

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.
Tips:
- For the Nutter Butter Babies, use a sharp knife to cut a slit in the center of each cookie. Be careful not to cut all the way through.
- When making the Diaper Babies, use a toothpick to make a small hole in the center of each cookie. Then, insert a pretzel stick into the hole to create the "diaper."
- For the Bootie Babies, use a small cookie cutter to cut out a heart shape from each cookie. Then, use a toothpick to make a small hole in the center of each heart. Finally, insert a pretzel stick into the hole to create the "bootie."
- To make the Baby Shower Cupcakes, start by baking a batch of cupcakes. Then, use a piping bag to frost the cupcakes with your favorite frosting. Finally, decorate the cupcakes with Nutter Butter babies, diaper babies, and bootie babies.
Conclusion:
Nutter Butter baby shower treats are a delicious and festive way to celebrate the upcoming arrival of a new baby. With a little creativity, you can create a variety of different treats that are sure to impress your guests. So get baking and enjoy!
