Chocolate Acorn Cookies Recipe
This chocolate acorn cookies recipe is the perfect treat for fall. Wafer cookies, chocolate kisses, and butterscotch chips create a fun and flavorful treat for autumn.
Ingredients
- 25 mini Nilla wafers
- 25 Hershey kisses candies
- 25 butterscotch chips
- chocolate frosting
Instructions
- Place your mini Nilla wafers upside down on a baking sheet or cutting board.
- In a small bowl, microwave the frosting in 30 second increments, stirring in between, until melted.
- Allow the frosting to cool slightly.
- Place a small bit of the chocolate onto the bottom of the Nilla wafers, and attach a Hershey’s kiss candy to each one. Place them in refrigerator to chill for about 15 minutes.
- Then, add a dab of chocolate to the top of the wafers and attach the butterscotch chips.
- Attach the butterscotch chip to the top of the Nilla wafer cookie.
- Repeat this for all of the candies, and then chill for 15 minutes more.
Notes
- Chocolate frosting is used as a “glue” to hold together the butterscotch chips, wafers, and candy kisses.
- It’s important to let the cookies chill in the fridge so that the frosting sets, keeping the cookies together.
- To secure the cookies even more, add a bit of frosting around the kisses and the chips.
- Store these easy acorn candy cookies in a cool place in an airtight container. You can also keep these chocolate acorn cookies in a Ziplock bag, just make sure it's in a cool area so the chocolate doesn't melt.
