Equipment

  • wax paper
  • without the stem
  • Silicone spoon or spatula
  • Fork
  • Baggie
  • Scissors
  • paper towel or napkin

Materials

  • 1 12 oz. Chocolate Melts Light Cocoa
  • 1 package Mint filled OREO or similar Mint-Filled Cookies
  • 1 16 oz. Maraschino Cherries without the stem

Instructions

  • Using the small glass bowl, microwave the chocolate according to the directions on the package - *I usually put mine in the microwave for 1 minute, stir with my silicone spatula and pop it back for 30 seconds. If the chocolate is melted and smooth after your stir it together - you are done. Don't overcook. 
  • Place a large spoonful of melted chocolate into a baggie
  • Snip a small corner from the bottom of the bag to allow the chocolate to flow out
  • Place a sheet of wax paper down and begin drawing antlers with your melted chocolate in the bag
  • Make double the amount of antlers as you have cookies - If you make around 40 - you should be good to go
  • Let those dry to set up - you can hurry the process by placing them in the freezer for a couple of minutes, but they will probably air dry while you continue the next step
  • Place the cherries onto a piece of paper towel
  • Now, while the antlers are drying, plop one cookie at a time into the rest of the chocolate
  • Use your fork to gently push it down and flip it over - completely covering the cookie
  • Pull the cookie up to the side of your bowl with your fork
  • Tap the fork on the side of the bowl allowing the excess chocolate to drip into the bowl and smoothing the top of your cookie
  • Slide the cookie off of the fork onto more wax paper - *if this is too tricky for you, use a toothpick to guide the cookie off
  • While your cookie is still wet - insert the dry antlers into the middle section of the cookie
  • Add the cherry nose
  • Do that with each cookie and you'll have several Cute Rudolph Cookies

Notes

Making Ahead and Storing:

  • You can place these in an airtight container and store them for up to a few days, or leave them out on a platter for the day. They should be fine and still yummy. The only part that might dry out a little is the cherry on top.
