Happy Thanksgiving & Acorn Cookies

I hope everyone who celebrates Thanksgiving has had a wonderful day full of food and family. I enjoyed both! It probably wasn't necessary to try all the desserts, but I felt it was my duty as a food blogger ;-)

You may have seen these on Facebook or Instagram (kimslittlelife)....

"Acorn" Cookies

  • Mini Nilla Wafer Cookies
  • Hershey Kisses
  • Mini Chocolate Chips
  • chocolate wafers, melted
Melt chocolate wafers, use the melted chocolate to "glue" the Hershey Kiss to the bottom of a mini wafer. Then use a small amount of melted chocolate to adhere the mini chocolate chip on top of the mini wafer. End result - cute little acorn cookies! 

We used Caramel Hershey Kisses and they were tasty little treats. We also made Pumpkin Spice Rice Krispie Treats and added them with the acorn cookies to treat bags for the kids' teachers. The treat bag tags were found at She Wears Many Hats (free printable!). I have also discovered that you can cut the butter in the cereal treats back to 3 T., but it's best not to cut it back to 2 unless you want really crispy Krispie Treats! Just a little FYI. Sorry teachers!
