These Little Guys Arrived Today


Thanks to my friend Kris, I was able to get my neighborhood treats completed! What a great idea, thanks Kris! Click on her name to check out her Santa's too. So fun!
The mice turned out so cute, and with equal amounts of diverse personalities as salvation army Santa's. Not an insurmountable task with these little rodents.

'Twas the night before Christmas when all through the house, not a creature was stirring, not even a mouse - or will they come to life tonight?

Easy and fun to make, Aspen and Liberty loved putting on the ears.

Christmas Mice
Hershey kisses
Dipping chocolate
Maraschino Cherries with stem
Peanut halves
Wax paper

Melt chocolate in pan at about 170 degrees, drain and dry cherries, use unsalted peanuts, unwrap kisses. Dip cherries in chocolate, press kiss to end opposite of stem, place peanut ears immediately behind the kiss- DONE. Makes about 50 with one bag of kisses, 1 lb of chocolate (with left over), few peanuts (although you can mix some with your extra chocolate!)
