small set of tweezers (optional, but really helps with precision)
Ingredients
30wafer cookiesany flavor
1cupyellow melting wafers
1TBSPcoconut oil
60candy eyeballs
60round orange sprinkles(for the beaks)
60orange flower-shaped sprinkles(for the feet)
60yellow leaf-shaped sprinkles(for the hair)
Instructions
Cookie coating: In a small, microwaveable bowl, melt the yellow wafers and coconut oil together. Melt for one minute at 50% power. Stir the wafers and coconut oil. Continue microwaving for 30 second increments at 50% power until fully melted and smooth. This will take between 3 and 5 minutes.
Pour the melted wafers into a piping bag. This step isn’t absolutely necessary, you can pour the melted wafers onto the cookie. I find that a piping bag helps with a more consistent pour and reduces waste of the melting wafers.
Place the wafers on a cooling rack and use a parchment-lined baking sheet to capture any dripping from the melted wafers. Starting at the top of the cookie, pour or pipe the melted wafers onto the cookie in a back and forth motion covering just two-thirds of the cookie.
Allow the melting wafers to drip off for just a minute. You don’t want the cookie to set before you add the sprinkles.
Decorate: Using the tweezers, push 2 of the candy eyeballs into the melted chocolate then place 2 of the flower-shaped sprinkles to resemble the feet.
Add 2 of the yellow hair sprinkles above the eyes, near the top and place the 2 orange sprinkles under the eyes to give you the beak. Let cool to set, then serve and enjoy!
