Ingredients

  • 20 pieces Nutter Butter cookies
  • 2 cups White candy melts
  • 1 tube Pink food coloring or gel
  • 1 tube Blue food coloring or gel
  • 40 pieces Mini candy eyes
  • 1 pen Black edible marker or gel
  • 0.25 cups White nonpareils or sprinkles

Directions

Step 1

Line a baking sheet with parchment paper to use as your workspace and set aside.

Step 2

Melt the white candy melts in a microwave-safe bowl in 30-second increments, stirring between each, until smooth and fully melted.

Step 3

Separate the melted candy into two bowls. Add a few drops of pink food coloring to one bowl and blue food coloring to the other. Stir until colors are evenly spread.

Step 4

Hold a Nutter Butter cookie horizontally. To make the 'swaddle,' dip the bottom two-thirds of the cookie into the pink or blue-colored candy melt. Gently shake off excess candy coating.

Step 5

Place the dipped cookie onto the prepared baking sheet while the candy coating is still wet. Sprinkle white nonpareils over the coated portion for added texture and decoration.

Step 6

While the coating is still slightly sticky, add mini candy eyes to the upper undipped portion of the cookie to form the baby’s face.

Step 7

Using the black edible marker or gel, carefully draw a small dot for the baby’s nose and a curved line for a smile.

Step 8

Repeat the process with all 20 Nutter Butter cookies, alternating between pink and blue swaddles as desired.

Step 9

Allow the decorated cookies to set completely at room temperature, about 20 minutes, before serving or packaging for the baby shower.
