Steps:

• *Set note at end before beginning. In a small bowl, microwave about 1/2 cup of a desired color of candy melts just until melted as directed on package, stirring in between. Don't overheat or the candy will separate. Working on 2-3 cookies at a time, dip the cookies into the melted candy, then place on a wax paper lined cookie sheet. (Candy can be reheated slightly as needed). Immediately, press an unmelted white (or chocolate) candy melt onto the top section of the cookie. This will be the baby's face. Set aside to harden. (I placed some of the white candies flat side up, and some pointy side up using the little center tip as the nose). When the coating has hardened, squirt a little of the decorating gel onto a saucer or wax paper and, using the artist brush, draw the baby's eyes, nose, and mouth on the white (or chocolate) candy melt. (I used a toothpick to help). I went a little crazy on a few adding hair and nostrils!! :) Allow time for cookies to set before serving. (Note- The decorating gel does not set so the cookies can't be stacked on top of each other). ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~ *NOTE: After doing a few as directed above, I found it easier to paint the baby faces on all the white and chocolate candies first. Then carefully placing one on the cookies as they were dipped, working on 2-3 cookies at a time so the melting candy doesn't harden too quickly. Also, I only dipped the front sides of the cookies. It makes them less sweet and also extends the melted candy so more cookies can be dipped.
