Ingredients

• 1 bag (8-10 oz) Nutter Butter Bites
• 1 cup Milk Chocolate Chips
• 1 cup Mini Pretzels (broken into small pieces)
• 1 tablespoon Chocolate Sprinkles

Directions

Step 1

1. Prepare your workstation by lining a baking sheet or large plate with parchment or wax paper. This will be used to set the finished acorn cookies.

Step 2

2. Place the milk chocolate chips in a microwave-safe bowl and melt in 20-second intervals, stirring well between each interval, until the chocolate is smooth and fully melted.

Step 3

3. Take a Nutter Butter Bite and dip the top of it into the melted chocolate, ensuring the top is evenly coated.

Step 4

4. Immediately dip the chocolate-coated top into the chocolate sprinkles to create the 'cap' of the acorn. Shake off any excess sprinkles.

Step 5

5. Break mini pretzels into small straight pieces (about 1-1.5 cm in length). Use one piece as the 'stem' by attaching it to the center of the chocolate-coated top. Hold for a few seconds to secure.

Step 6

6. Place the finished acorn cookie onto the prepared sheet to allow the chocolate to set.

Step 7

7. Repeat this process with the remaining Nutter Butter Bites.

Step 8

8. Allow the cookies to sit at room temperature for about 10-15 minutes to let the chocolate harden completely. For faster setting, place the sheet in the refrigerator for about 5 minutes.

Step 9

9. Serve the acorn cookies on a platter or store them in an airtight container at room temperature for up to one week.
