    Nutter Butter Boo Buddies
    Ingredients:

    * Nutter Butter cookies
    * White almond bark* (ghost and skull)
    * Black decorating gel or chocolate frosting (ghost, skull, and bat)
    * Good & Plenty (skull)
    * Brown almond bark* (bat)
    * 1 ½" chocolate dipped cookies (I used Keebler Grasshopper cookies)
    * Candy corn tips (bat)
    * Yellow M&M minis (bat)
    * Red frosting (bat)
    * Wax paper

    * *In lieu of almond bark you can use white or semi-sweet chocolate chips. Add a small amount of Crisco as you melt to make the consistency smoother. Don't add too much or your chocolate won't harden completely.

    Method:

    Ghost: Melt white almond bark. Dip cookies in the melted bark, covering completely. Gently shake to remove excess coating. Place on wax paper. Allow bark to harden completely. Using decorating gel or chocolate frosting, create eyes and a mouth on each ghost.

    Skull: Melt white almond bark. Dip cookies in the melted bark, covering completely. Gently shake to remove excess coating. Place on wax paper. Place three white Good & Plenty candies to create mouth before bark hardens. Allow bark to harden completely. Using decorating gel or chocolate frosting, create eyes and a nose cavity on each skull.

    Bat: Melt brown almond bark. Dip cookies in the melted bark, covering completely. Gently shake to remove excess coating. Place on wax paper to harden. Decorate each bat face. Cut the white tips off of candy corn. Pipe a red frosting mouth onto each bat and attach the fangs. If you are having a hard time getting them to stick, dip the back in the melted almond bark and use as an adhesive. Dip the back of each yellow eye in the bark and attach to the face. Draw black dots on each eye using decorating gel or chocolate frosting. Dip your finger into the bark. (At this point it should be cooling off.) Create the bat ears by touching a bark-coated finger to the top of the bat's head and drawing away slowly to leave a point. Attach the face to the body using melted bark.
