Grab between 6 & 10 orange chocolate melts and cut them into eighths
Melt your chocolate melts in the glass bowl. I like to melt in the microwave for 1 minute, stir and heat for another 30 seconds. Stir until smooth
Pour out your Jimmies onto your work surface, have your eyes ready to go
Begin dipping your cookies into the melted chocolate
push them down with your fork and turn them over
use the fork to lift the cookie to the side of the bowl
rest it at the rim of the bowl and tap the fork to release excess chocolate from the cookie
slide the cookie onto the wax paper and begin to decorate it
*use a toothpick to help push the cookie off of the fork
Add eyes and 1 piece of your sliced orange chocolate
*NOW - in order to get the cutest beaks, I learned that the curved part of the orange chocolate melt (the top) should face the cookie with the flat (bottom) of the orange beak facing out
when your yellow cookies have dried just a smidge, you can add the Jimmies for the feet
I used 2 Jimmies per foot in a V pattern
Just carefully (because they are very fragile) place them on the bottom of the cookie facing out in a V pattern
Again, use your toothpick as an aide if necessary
