This episode is a mother in law special, because well, it’s her recipe. When it comes to decorating for a holiday event it’s hard to outdo my mother-in-law. Whenever she prepares for a holiday everything, including the food she makes, has to adhere religiously to the theme being prepared.
This recipe is a perfect appetizer or dessert if you are having people over for Easter. What really make it great is you don’t actually have to bake these cookies.
Here are the ingredients you will need to assemble your Easter treats.
- Pepperidge Farm Milano Mint – Chocolate Cookies
- Orange Candy Melts
- Green Candy Melts
- Green Sprinkles
- Orange Sprinkles
Preparation
- Use a bread knife and cut the Milano Mint Cookies into the desired carrot shape.
- Once the basic shape has been made, use a paring knife smooth out the edges.
- Melt the desired amount of Orange Candy Melt into a “dippable” container
- Dip the shaped cookie ¾ of the way into the Orange Candy Melt.
- Place the dipped carrots on a pan with parchment paper and sprinkle them with the orange sprinkles.
- Wait 15 minutes for the sprinkle Melt to dry.
- Melt the desired amount of Green Candy Melt into another “diappable” container, this one does not have to be as deep as the first one.
- Dip the cookies so that the remaining ¼ of the cookies gets a green top.
- Place the dipped carrots on the same pan with parchment paper and sprinkle the newly dipped portion with green sprinkles.
- Wait another 15 minutes and you are ready to serve.
