All right now…tell me if you can…have you ever seen anything so cute in all your life?!! Sweet little baby acorns.
I first saw these in an issue of Disney’s Family Time magazine and could not resist. They were so easy that it’s quite likely you don’t really need the instructions–but humor me.
Start with glazed donut holes…
and chocolate frosting, peanut butter or nutella. To me, the choice was obvious–but you do what you want.
You’ll also need crushed toffee bits and/or
those little chocolate sprinkly things.
Now, then–to impress upon your mind exactly how easy these little do-dads were to whip up, this is exactly when we started the process.
I should have been cool and poured the Nutella in a bowl, but having been raised by wolves, as I was–I just dipped it right out of the container. Don’t tell my family.
Now dip those little suckers in whichever topping you prefer–toffee bits or the sprinkly things.
Oh, I forgot to tell you that you’ll also need a small bag of stick pretzels. Snap about a third off and eat it. Don’t bite it off because that’s just tacky. Stick the pretzel piece in the top of your acorn.
Start to finish, INCLUDING clean-up. No lie and no Photoshop. Now that’s fast.
Be on the lookout for squirrels…or large teen-age boys pretending to be squirrels.
Eww…that would be creepy.
