How to make the easiest fall acorn cookies:
If you have a party at school, a celebration at home, or you just want to have a little fun in the kitchen with a tasty end result, try out these easy acorn cookies. They’re great for fall but you can also make them year round!
- Open a sandwich size Ziploc bag. Holding one bottom corner with your hand, drape the top open portion over your hand. Fill the corner you are holding with 2-3 tablespoons of peanut butter. Close the bag almost completely, leaving only a very small portion open for air to escape. Cut the tip of the corner where the peanut butter is to create a piping bag. You can also just use a piping bag for this project if you have one on hand!
- To make the cookies, pipe a small amount of peanut butter onto the center of a Nutter Butter Bite. Press one Hershey’s Kiss into the peanut butter.
- On the opposite side of the Nutter Butter Bite, pipe a dot of peanut butter, and press one peanut butter chip in place. Let the peanut butter dry for approximately 5 minutes before serving.
