Calories: 143kcal
Ingredients
- 16 nutter butters
- 16 orange m&ms cut in half
- 32 small candy eyes
- 3 tablespoons orange icing
- 12 ounce package of yellow melting wafers
Instructions
- In a medium-sized heat-safe bowl, heat the yellow melting wafers according to package instructions. Make sure to stir it well to avoid clumps.
- Using a fork, lower the nutter butters into the melted yellow chocolate one by one. Let the excess drip back into the bowl and then place them on parchment paper to set (harden).
- Once the yellow chocolate has hardened, use the orange icing to “glue” eyes onto the nutter butter chicks and m&m halves for feet.
- Using the same orange icing, make a small triangle under the eyes to form the chick’s beak and then small lines at the very top of the nutter butter above the eyes to form hair.
- Place the nutter butter chicks in your refrigerator for at least 1 hour to allow the icing to harden.
- Serve at room temperature or chilled.
