These super sweet little mice are as much fun to make as they are to eat.
RECIPE INGREDIENTS:
1 cup semisweet chocolate chips
1 tablespoon vegetable shortening
48 dried apricots
Wooden skewers
48 M&M's Minis
Black shoestring licorice
24 dry-roasted peanut halves
1. Place the chocolate chips and shortening in a microwave-safe bowl and microwave on high for 1 minute.
2. Stir and microwave for 1 minute more.
3. Stir until smooth.
4. For each mouse, press together 2 dried apricots, making a small point for the mouse's nose, and thread them onto a skewer.
5. Dip them into the melted chocolate and place on a waxed-paper-lined baking sheet.
6. Use a second skewer to push the mouse off the first skewer; use your fingertip to cover the hole left behind with chocolate.
7. Add M&M's Minis eyes, a shoestring licorice tail, and peanut ears (we broke each peanut half in half again).
8. Refrigerate until hardened.
9. Makes 24.
