40Nilla Wafersthis will create [20] assembled hamburgers.
20York Peppermint Patty
¼cupSweetened shredded coconut
2drops of green food coloring
⅓cupYellow candy melts
⅓cupRed candy melts
⅓cupWhite candy melts
1tbspButtermelted
1tspSesame seeds
Instructions
Candy Melts: Start by placing the required amount of candy melts in a small zip locked bag or a piping bag (secured closed) and lay flat in the microwave. Heat each bag separately for 1 minute 30 seconds, then remove the bag and let sit on the counter, under a towel. The idea is to keep the candy warm so that it finishes melting.
After 2 minutes, massage each bag. Return to the microwave for 15 second increments if needed to melt completely. When they are warm and smooth, snip a small corner of each bag and get started with the assembly.
Assemble Hamburger cookies: Next, measure out the shredded coconut and in the measuring cup add a couple drops of the green food coloring. Start with 2 drops, stir and determine if that is the desired shade of green to resemble lettuce. You want a light green, starting with 2 drops should accomplish this.
After that, lay out a piece of parchment paper on a baking sheet. Then lay out [20] of the Nilla Wafer cookies, flat side up (this is the bottom bun). Proceed to add a swirl of the white melted chocolate to each cookie, then press a peppermint patty on top of that so some of the white chocolate peeks through the edge.
Next, add a swirl of yellow chocolate to the top of the peppermint patty. Then add a pinch of green coconut to the top of that.
Now, grab the other [20] wafer cookies and lay those out flat side up and add a swirl of red chocolate to those cookies. Proceed to place these cookies (ketchup side down) on top of the lettuce and gently squeeze the hamburger together so the cookie stays together.
In a small bowl, melt the butter in the microwave for 30 seconds. Then brush a small amount on top of each hamburger and sprinkle with the sesame seeds. Serve and enjoy!
