Ingredients

Scale

Acorns

  • 1 package Nutter Butter Bites (approximately 9 oz)
  • 1 package Hershey’s Kisses (about 12 pieces)
  • 1/2 cup mini chocolate chips

Instructions

  1. Prepare the base: Lay out the Nutter Butter Bites on a clean work surface to form the base of your acorns. These cookies resemble the nut portion of the acorn.
  2. Add the cap: Unwrap Hershey’s Kisses and place one unwrapped Kiss on top of each Nutter Butter Bite, pressing slightly so they stick together. The Kiss represents the cap of the acorn.
  3. Attach mini chocolate chips: Using a small dab of softened chocolate from the Kiss or a tiny amount of frosting, press mini chocolate chips around the base of the Kiss to mimic the texture of an acorn cap. Arrange them closely for a realistic effect.
  4. Chill (optional): Place the assembled acorns in the refrigerator for about 15-20 minutes to set the chocolate and help them hold together better before serving.

Notes

  • You can substitute Hershey’s Kisses with any small chocolates of similar shape if desired.
  • For easier assembly, slightly warm the Hershey’s Kisses to soften the base for better sticking.
  • Store the finished acorns in an airtight container in the refrigerator for up to 3 days.
  • This is a no-bake recipe, making it quick and simple for all ages.
