Nutter Butter Reindeer Recipes

Steps:

• In a stand mixer or with hand beaters whip together the powdered sugar and the peanut butter. Add the milk 1 tablespoon at a time until the frosting is thick but squeezable (you may not need all the milk). Use the peanut butter frosting to attach the pretzels to the top of the cookies as antlers, the brown candies as eyes, and the red candies as a nose. Let sit for 15 minutes or so to set.

Steps:

• In a microwave, melt candy coating; stir until smooth. Dip one cookie in chocolate; allow excess to drip off. Place on waxed paper., Attach two marshmallow halves onto cookie for eyes; add decorating icing for pupils and a mouth. Add an M&M or Red Hot for nose. Attach pretzels or pretzel pieces for antlers. Repeat. Let stand until set.

Steps:

• 1. Melt the chocolate almond bark in a double boiler or microwave.
• 2. Dip each cookie into the melted almond bark. Do one at a time tapping cookie to get the excess almond bark to drip off. Put onto a wax paper lined cookie sheet.
• 3. After dipping a few cookies at a time put broken pretzels on the top of the dipped cookies to resemble antlers. Next put two candy eyes not quite halfway down in the cookie. Finally put a Red Hot candy at the bottom of the cookie for the nose. Continue dipping and decorating the cookies. You can make a few at a time or make an entire package. I bought my candy eyes at Walmart and had just enough candy eyes in each package to decorate an entire package of cookies. I did half a package of Reindeer and the other half I made Santa's.
• 4. As I posted in the ingredients, you can make eyes and the nose using cookie icing. I have a lot of Christmas goodies to make so it was just easier for me to use the already made ones.
